High Heart Rate

High Heart Rate

I'm a 20 year old male, about 40 lbs overweight but pretty strong and play sports at least once a week. Recently, my heart rate increased to averaging out around 100 bpm, min 88 and max 116. This is at complete rest. After becoming aware of this I started checking blood pressure fairly regularly and I'm coming in as low as 95/51 or as high as 130/71. I'm not concerned so much with a single high or low reading but I am concerned with the rapid heart rate and vast change in blood pressure. Additionally, on two instances I had some chest pain and when checking my pulse via my neck, I could feel my heart "missing" a beat. It would be fast, then a slight pain would hit as a "miss" or "pause", then a hard beat after that. Any ideas as what this is?

Could be anything jdm from simple benign palpatations to anything.  The best way to find out tho is just to make and appt. w. your family doc and have them check your vitals. Your blood pressure flucuating just like your heart could just simply be whatever it is you are doing that could raise and/or lower it including anxiety.  If you have no symtoms (symptoms) and you are just sporatically taking your pulse and b/p i seriously wouldn't worry too much about it but i won't hurt just to get your docs opinion.  Our systems are completely reactive to our environment many times and others are genetic....i'd just call the doc and make an appt. if i were you if it is bothering you....
