Heart Problem After Root Canal?

i have been experiancing tachycardia and palpitation for years for unknown reason (doctors still couldnt find it but it's not psychologycal problem) and on beta-blocker.

I just got root cannal treatment for 1 teeth last week for the 1 day. The doctor killed the nerve(thats what they told me) temporary filled it and sent me home.
Yesterday i went back there and the doctor said they clean up my root cannal and pull out the nerve, filled it and sent me home. I am not sure what exactly they did during the process since i couldn't really see.
They told me to come back next week.

But since yesterday after i went home from the doctor untill now my heart problem feels getting worse. I wonder if where is the problem because i have never gotten worse like this before for no reason. And before that i was constantly in the same condition as weeks and months ago.
I wonder if there is some side effect from it, maybe the drug (during the process or maybe the filling) or something else. (i dont take any drug for the root canal, not susch as pain killer)

Have anyone also experianced it or knows information about it?

Your help means a lot to me.

I take it you received a general anesthetic.  Novocaine with epinephrine is a local numbing agent and directly injected into the area to be numbed.

If you are still feeling poorly, I urge you to contact your regular dr. or your cardiologist and discuss your tachycardia.  It's possible the anesthetic used is interacting with your beta blocker.

Have you taken your pulse?  Rather than focusing on your dental treatment I think it's more important to address the tachycardia.  If you heart rate is very fast, or you feel lightheaded or sick, go to your local ER for evaluation.  You never want to play around with cardiac symptoms.

It's possible to get tachycardia from novocaine unless it had epinephrine in it.  Have you been getting it each time you went?

If so, it may be in your best interests to call your dentist or cardiologist and report your tachycardia.

That should be you can get tachycardia from novocaine WITH epinephrine in it.
I don't think I made that clear on re reading it.  Sorry.

Hello and thank you for answering.
Is that epinephrine that u meant is anesthetic?
Well i called the doctor and they said they didnt give me anesthetic. Although i don't know exactly.
But even if they gave me, wouldnt it be last more than 1 day? But its been 3 days now and i still feel worse from before the second appointment on root canal. I don't know what to do and where's the problem :(
