Summary
A Reddit user in r/covidlonghaulers reported being bedridden for months and suspected POTS, with doctors finding nothing seriously wrong. Palpitations usually came on with physical exertion such as work or bowling league, though they hadn't done those in weeks. They took 25 mg metoprolol extended release, which lowered their heart rate and blood pressure; they still sometimes felt palpitations at night and had felt two shortly before posting. They had been afraid to start it.
