Pulse rate seem high very rapidly
I recently got my self a heart rate monitor watch and have been curious as to if my pulse should be rising and falling so suddenly. When I'm laying it's around 75-85, when I'm sitting it around 90-100, when I'm standing its around 105-115, when I walk slow it around 120- 130, when I carry shopping its around 140-160, when I ran a fue steps to catch up with my kids it got as high at 170, when I was just sweeping my back yard it got 160. should my heart really be changing so fast and so dramaticly all the time I'm confused.
I've been feeling very fatiuged and very low in energy hard to pick up my feet ect, I crash energy wise after using the jym or swimming at the pool for exercise. I'm told these problems are just related to mental health problems but I still a little worried that there might be something els going on.
I have 2 serious asthma attack in the last 2 mth and I was just walking and using a bike at the jym, I've never had serious asthma before just mild sport related asthma that has alway been well controlled till now. I always loved walking could walk for hours now I can barly walk 5 mins before I feel so tired I have to sit. I dont know what to do I was assuted in a home invasion nothing to bad just a minor assult from a friends angry boy friend, but I'm now diagnoised with PTSD only recently. The event cause serious depression that was the worst eva and I was basicly in bed for over a year and half really only been out and doing everyday thing for less then 1y, and started the jym about 6mth ago to loose the 30 kg that zyprexa helped me gain even thoe I was still eating very little while extreamly depressed. I been trying so hard at the jym and thought I was getting fitter I can push more wieghts and can ride faster ect but still struggle to walk faster I did get a jog finally and then had a very serious asthma for my asthma anyway i have never had serious weeze before that contant and I had to put on pednisolone to help with the asthma. Since then I feel like it been going down hill can barly walk cant get threw my day if I'm out after 12pm I feel so tired and normally have to wait to gain some energy regularly to get home.
My blood results were all normal and my ECG when laying down was normal well my pulse monitor say prety normal also when I'm laying down so no surprise there. The problem is standing and walking I can lay in bed all day and be fine but I want my life back. Need help whats wrong with me??????

Actually your heart rates aren't really too much out of the ordinary for being active. If you are a bit out of shape,your heart rates will be a bit faster which can cause a drop in blood pressure and cause fatigue. Keep in mind that those monitors aren't always very accurate. The other thing that comes to mind is could you have CFS (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) ?
I'm kinda hopeing I dont have CFS, lol I've already been diagnoised with depression, anxiety, OCD, and PTSD. lol I it sound silly but I'd rather be suffering from something that can fixed and is not another "invisable" illness to other people.
The most confusing part is how I felt really good a fue months ago but now I feel worse I've been trying so hard in the jym I feel like a failure or something why can push heavier weights and cycle faster yet not walk properly lol...the problem seem to be ONLY when I'm standing and thats what confuses me. If it was CFS wouldn't I feel the fatuige all the time I've had fatuige in the past and i could barly lift a remote this time the fatuige is on when standing and walking its so strange. I fine as long as I'm sitting or laying but as soon as up for more than 5mins I feel so flat and exasuted it can take hours to feel better some time depending on how far I push my self. I was not feeling like this 6mth ago or 1y ago when I was up right and doing things i need to do.
does my body just hate me for trying to stand????? lol I know that proberly not true but it feels that way lol. Is it my brains way of saying something thing me I dont know I just know I want to better and walking for hours again with ease not feeling like I dragging a ball chain around with me on each leg.
My dr has finally given me stronger pain meds and sleeping meds, Her opinion about the pain and fatiuge is that its caused by lack of proper sleep. I have been suffering insomnia for 2.5 year now, for the first time in my life.
People look at me like I'm crazy or something lol they see this young person, I'm 32 but look yonger than that alway have looked younger, yet I'm walking slower than the elderly.I cant stand on buses now and use to stand all the time, I cant offer my seat to the elderly cause I standing is so hard on my body. I could not even offer my arm to support a old lady that could barly see to help her cross the road with me. I was so tired I new if she grabed a hold of me we would both be on the ground. It not in my head its not anxiety lol I have fallen when my kids run into me I'm foreva touching things to stay upright cause I feel so weak. I drink sports drinks to stay as strong as I can cause its the only drink that seem to help me feel a little better, I eat healthy food to give me energy cause while i dont have diabetes I have very sensative body about energy i cant miss meal or I get shacky and just generally blahh yuck feeling like I have not eaten for days. My body seems to become way to sensative and it doing me more harm than good.
I read in the parkinson syptoms about how thay beleiave low dopamine to be responciable for why people with parkinson have trouble walking and I was on zyprexa which one of the more serious effect can be on you brains abilty to produce dopamine or something and the leg problem started with zyprexa but was getting better over time till now since coming off zyprexa. My dr seems to think Zyprexa should not have cause this problem so i going alone with her insomnia theray which I do know can cause the body to have many problems cause you body heal's basicly with sleep. It proberly a combination of my issues causing the same problem lol...but I just want to feel better and I supose in a way thoe it may seem strange that if my heart was causing these problems its more likly fixable in a shorter time even thoe it caries way more risk. I also just have this nagging concern that my Dr is blaming this to easily and to quickly just my mental illness would that be her first opinion if I did not suffer from mental illness problems. I ask if a stess test might help reveal a cause and she said I have to chest pain as well. I get chest pain or charp pains or tightness but not at the same time as the walking as far as I know cause I normaly in so much pain anyway that I take pain killer shortly after starting to walk if know I have to keep walking and the pain in my legs is already unbarable lol. I also wanted to ask about a tilt table test since the problem is when I'm standing and I get dizzy easy when I lean down to pick things up from the ground. I cant even bend my knees to pick things up these day cause thay are so weak I normaly have not strength to get back up again to unless I put my hands on the ground and pushmy self up to till my knees are prety much locked then I stand up slowly using somthing to help me. My legs just feel so weak and wobbly and it makes no sence cause when I doing leg weight at the jym thay dont feel that way sitting of the jym equipment and push weights feel great i feel strong I'm improving its only when I've been standing and try to push my self up right again. Which tell me it cant be normal fatuige or CFS. I just dont know why my body hate standind lol.

My pulse rate monitor watch is the kind that picks up the electrical signale like a ECG/EKG machine, so its meant to be the more reliable kind.
I just recently bought my second heart monitor watch. the first one was extremely accurate but it broke after 3 months. I find that the chest strap monitors are more accurate than the wristband, which didn't read me at all. They just don't read high enough on the heart rates, my heart rate is between 160-250 when active.
I would like the chest strap ones but I cant afford right now.
Is it normal for your heart rate to jump 30 beast in a fue secs after standing I dont really know. I thought it should take a little more than a fue seconds to make that bigger jump. and I thought it would settle back after standing for longer I dont know I dont see why my body is 80 (which is said to be adverage from most things I've read). when laying and instantly 110 when i stand. can anyone answer that for me is that really normal I dont know. I though heart rate stayed around the same unless you really pushed you body standing up is not really some thing I would have suspected of being close to enought to make that kinds of jump in rate. But I may be wrong lol.

Those all seem normal readings to me. Yes your heart can jump 30 beats when you stand. Sometimes mine does, somtimes it doesn't. The more you focus on it, the more it will increase. Heart rates vary all day long. I've heard that it is better for them to jump around like that. It isn't good for example for the heart to just beat the same pace all the time. Frenchie
lol thankyou I'm glad people think is normal and healthy but why cant I walk very fast and why cant loose weight lol, Thats kind sound silly saying the weight thing after the walking comments but I stopped being able to loose weight before my leg got really bad.
I dont know what to do I really dont???????
I just know what I want from my body and wont do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Symptoms
Many times, the person experiencing palpitations may not be aware of anything apart from the abnormal heart rhythm itself. But palpitations can be associated with other things such as tightness in the chest, shortness of breath, dizziness or light-headedness. Depending on the type of rhythm problem, these symptoms may be just momentary or more prolonged. Actual blackouts or near blackouts, associated with palpitations, should be taken seriously because they often indicate the presence of important underlying heart disease. Another symptom is pain in arms or legs sometimes lasting through the night before the palpitation.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is what make me think I need to make sure it nothing going on with via a stress test of something.....
1..I was so weak I barly made it home I really was not with it I was breathing shallow, finding it hard to walk, shaky, it was a very hot day at well but I was drinking really well due to the heat I was even carring frozen drinks to help me. I felt generally very unwell when the epsoide I had happen about 2 weeks ago now. I really could not say I had palpitaion cause I was feeling so yuck I was kinda out of it till I felt better again. But I'm sure my heart was beating very fast at the time not sure what out every thing I suffer from blame it on. Just worried things get blamed on my mental illness to easy
2....I have pain in my arms some time but mostly my legs and specially at night latly. and there was a pain and stil is kinda a pain in my right arm but I have taken pain stonger pain meds for my leg pain. I just had momentary flutter in my cheast which I know is anxiety this time cause I just had a phone call and I hate phone calls on my home phone lol not sure why I hate the home phone and not my mobiles so much lol just do. lol.
I'm not sacred some thing IS WRONG but I'm concern that I dont know when something is serious enought to warrent getting a tests to be absulotly sure. I even more I'm worried that it is to easy to blame the anxiety for the intencity of the way I feel with OUT be sure via test. I dotn want test to make me say I told you so. I want test more to say thank goodness I can relax for the next 10 year maybe lol. I just watched a medical show last night and a guy came in with a serious panic attack and thay still checked to make sure that was really what it was and I dont understand what so different about me. i dont want to look stupid about getting my heart looked at for anxiety but I also know that my heart is keeping me alive lol I cant live with out it basicly if I couldI would ask for it to be removed cause it anoyes me lol. So I dont know what to do...I'm gona go talk to my dr tomorrow just to let her know about how the new sleeping meds are going and how thay are helping if thay are. I wont really know till I go to the jym again and see if I crash again after ward and this time if it happen I should maybe ring for an ambulance but I dont want to be a pain looking for test when I may not need them.
when I'm anxious shouldn't my heart rate rise not fall lolor that another one of my backwards reaction lol. I once drank sleeping meds as a young child and went hyper lol still had to had my tummy pumped to get rid of the meds.
Proberly just anoying people with this thread but I have to ask

Types
Palpitations may be associated with feelings of anxiety or panic. It is normal to feel the heart thumping when feeling terrified or scared, but it may be difficult to know whether the palpitations or the panicked feeling came first. Unfortunately, since it can take some time before a clear diagnosis is made in a patient complaining of palpitations, people are sometimes told initially that the problem is anxiety.
Stressful situations cause an increase in the level of stress hormones, such as adrenaline, circulating in the blood, and there are some types of abnormal heart rhythm that can be stimulated by adrenaline excess, or by exercise. It may be possible to diagnose these sorts of palpitations by performing simple tests, such as an exercise test, while monitoring the ECG.
Some types of abnormal heart rhythm seem to be affected by posture. For many people, standing up straight after bending over can provoke a rapid heart rate. Often these attacks can be abolished again by lying down. Many people, if not all, are more aware of the heartbeat when lying quietly in bed at night. This is partly because at that time, the attention is not focused on other things, but also because the slower heart beat at rest can allow more premature beats to occur.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This what i want to rule out I get palpitation when i dont feel anxious i get tole it might be subconsious anxiety but I how can thay be sure the better I feel with my medication the more I wonder why I still get palpitaion with out fear it makes no sence and I've been anxious since I was very young I just recently thought this exact thing lol what is something is causeing adreneline to cause the feeling of anxiety instead of me it feel like vicious circle latly I feel good then my body seem to make me feel worse again which make me wonder if I still anxious which cause me to be anxious lol I cant win lol. i just which i could do a stress test to be sure about it. But I'm trying to let my Dr who is new to me this year as my old Dr of 12years change clinics to far away for me. I'm rambling again sorry

I've finally made everything clear with my dr and she agrees with my and my partner that my heart rate is getting to low and too high with little reason. So she has refured me to the hospital to have a holter monitor for 24 hour.
now I just have to wait for the hospital and then the results and go from there.
I have this thought that my anxiety has been masking a heart problem for years and now that I'm getting better it becomeing a problem cause the adeniline is no longer in my system all the time which is what might be causeing me to crash physically after exercise. Exercise uses adreniline which is meant to good for people with anxiety. The dr agrees that it a posabilty and that test do need to done now.So I feel better about that now I just have to face the anxiety related to extra tests and attenstion. But I need to know why, this is not first time I have had this problem is every time I try to get more active eg start to jog finally on tread mill. In the past I gave up thinking I was just panicing.
Hopfull thay fine something that easy to control and I'll be able to feel better.
