high pulse,normal to low blood pressure

I am a 45 yr old woman,i went through treatment for cancer two years ago(chemo,radio)
my pulse used to be around 80 at rest.Now it is around 110 to 120 at rest even lying down.My Bp is around 100 over 60.I want to know if it is safe for me to do strenuous exercise,or should I only do light exercise.
when my dr noticed this he said I should take more salt,which I am doing ,but so far no difference,
I live in a tropical climate .

You should first have an echocardiogram to assess the function of the heart.  If normal, salt loading is not a bad idea.  I would also encourage you to wear special compression stalkings that may help returning blood to the heart making you blood pressure better and your heart rate slower.
