View Full Version : Heart rate inflated. Worried
Hi All,
For some reason my HR is around the mid 80's to mid 90's mark today.
Im obsessively checking every few mins.
Its usually around the 68-72 mark! Never that high!
I had a palpitation this morning which calmed down after a while and my pulse was back to 68 but since around 10ish its been this high!
Am very anxious about it!
its higher becoz as you hav just said u are very anxious about it, try and do sumthing to take ur mind off it.n try to stop takin ur pulse,im a pulse checker n i no its not easy to stop. Ur fine! X hugs x
I wouldnt worry to much about this hun. Its because its on your mind and your body is aware of this. Even if your heart rate is normally around the 68-72 mark and has gone upto 90's its not a big jump and is classed as completley normal. Try to relax, you need to take your mind off this x

Bet you can't beat this one for inflated heart rate and its all pure anxiety. If ever I am in any medical setting even just my GP's waiting room then my pulse goes up to 140bpm. I cannot get out of a hospital setting without having a ecg even if I keep telling them that my heartrate is only this high because of them!!!
I recently had another 24 hr ecg- seem to get one about every 5 yrs for past 25 yrs because I have missed beats as well and although my missed beats were same as always loads of them ( harmelss) I did not have any episodes of very fast heartbeat because I was not anxious.
the more you worry faster it goes - I am the proof. YOur heartrate is not that fast in the 90's- do anything to stop yourself thinking about it and do not pulse check- tie your hands together if nec!!

Mine, during a panic attack, has actually been in the 160's. I've been in the ER a few times with this - they have all been sinus tachycardia brought on by a panic attack. Very scary, but my heart is fine.
