Cardiologist: Innapropriate Sinus Tachycardia can be treated with medications that slow the heart rate such as ivabradine, beta-blockers, or calcium channel blockers. Lifestyle changes may take a while to change the physiology. Eliminate potential triggers or stimulants in your diet such as caffeine, nicotine, and alcohol. The initial flurry of specialists was to come to a diagnosis. Talk to Cardiologist.

Hscrp: The heart rate has no significant effect on hscrp. Has an overactive thyroid been ruled out? For an elevated hscrp we recommend controlling coronary risk factors such as elevated serum lipids, blood pressure goal of 130/80 or lower, avoidance of smoking and some clinicians advocate taking low dose aspirin daily,but ask your physician about this as it's controversial. ?

Tachycardia: So-called benign tachycardia responds to low doses of beta-blockers or calcium channel blockers. An elevated hsCRP suggests unresolved inflammation in your body. This is a complex issue. For more information I recommend reading "The Resolution Zone" by my friend Barry Sears of Zone Diet fame.

HSCRP: I don't think your elevated high C-reactive protein is because of your arrhythmia. I added a link that discusses different inflammatory conditions that can elevate HSCRP. See: https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/322138
