She took her pulse and it was not rapid, It did not go away for 12 hours. She sat at the vaccination site for 35 minutes and she was a little bit stressed. so she went home and sat dead still for 2 hours without moving and her heart was just banging away in her chest, it was unrelenting. She called my doctor and they said if she had any more symptoms to go to the walk-in clinic. She did not have any of the other symptoms, but she was trying to report on the other system and she just can't get through on the phone. She wanted to let us know that it lasted for 12 hours and it didn't matter what she was doing or not doing, and it scared her. She did not have shortness of breath and was able to drive herself home and was not dizzy. The intensity of the beating is very concerning. She is a very allergic person, and her doctor gave her the go ahead and it was nothing else, her throat wasn't swelling, just the intense beating of her heart, she called the doctor because the heartbeat didn't slow down or was not getting any less, and she didn't know if she should go see someone. She was told if she was not experiencing any respiratory problems or dizzy and did not have any other adverse conditions that she should stay hydrated and rest. They said if any other symptoms showed up, she should go to the walk-in clinic. She didn't have any caffeine or anything because she didn't know if it would make her heart worse and she didn't know if she would be able to sleep with the heart beating as hard as it was. She didn't go to bed until after 2am and by then it had subsided, she was very healthy, did not have high blood pressure and nor was overweight, or high cholesterol.
