I didn't know my knee-caps could sweat-pretty perfuse. As far as the heart rate goes, I am better since being on Metoprolol from the cardiologist. I had a '21-day event monitor' on & it documented the runs of tachycardia (a heart rate greater that 100 beats per minute) up to 180 that was disproportionate to my activity. The 'official' diagnosis for me is 'Inappropriate Sinus Tachycardia'.

That is exactly what they diagnosis too. IST is only a hair difference to Post-COVID POTS. I get it that there is not enough data to really help me/us with treatment or a cure. I feel so defeated and at my wits end.
I have had an extensive cardiac work-up
48 hour monitor
30 day monitor - a lot of runs of supraventricular tachycardia
echocardiogram
I have had just about all lab tests
Stress test -I failed
6 minute walk- I failed
CT-angiogram - think goodness there is no damage to my heart.
MRI of the chest

It has been an experience and with no treatment plan.

What symptoms is the metoprolol effective for in your experience? I’m trying a low dose Clonidine patch + glycopyrrolate. I’m still sweating nonstop and severely cold in my extremities. Really hope we get closer to figuring this out via sharing anything we’ve found helpful/ observations.
