Has anyone had increased heart rate as a side effect from anastrozole?

Yes, it has gotten better, my heart rate is still a bit higher than what was normal for me. I do not have any proof that it was from the anastrozole, but it sure has made me wonder.

I just started my 5th month of Anastrozole. Minor side effects that are tolerable or able to mitigate with stretching etc.
that said, I innocently put the deep covid era pulse oximeter on my finger as I was cleaning out my bedside drawer and I noticed that my resting heart rate, which is typically 60, was 70! So I laid down to formally rest and it fluctuated between 66-75, mostly 70! I also noticed that my ear ringing sensation had returned … a lesser version but unpleasant nonetheless.
I don’t see the oncologist until October 3 but now I’m wondering if I should schedule a cardiologist appt. !
