“Is rapid heartbeat normal after COVID?”
I had COVID infection 2 weeks ago. After COVID I have rapid heartbeat almost every day. Will it go on its own?

Covid can cause diffuse severe inflammation of the heart and cause a cardiomyopathy due to myocarditis or focal inflammation leading to arrhythmias (irregular rhythms). I would recommend seeing your primary and getting an EKG, a heart monitor and an echocardiogram (ultrasound of the heart)
