Summary

A Reddit user in r/covidlonghaulers reported post-COVID tachycardia lasting about seven to eight months as of August 2022. Beta blockers helped a little, but a second round of COVID put them back to square one. They took propranolol 40 mg, which kept the tachycardia in control, though they still could not do any heavy physical activity on their cardiologist's advice.
