Get seen NOW: Rapid heart rate associated with symptoms of lack of effective blood flow (lightheaded, weak, faint) could be a very serious condition and needs evaluation immediately to stabilize the heart rate. Even if symptoms have improved, get seen. Of note, decongestants found in cold medicines can speed up the heart and bring out certain rapid heart rhythms in those prone to them.
