racing heart

I have checked my pause today at drug store, it was 102. probably today is a hot day, and i walked under the sun for a quite long time.

after take ativan, even though i don't have a panic attack ( i just don't feel too good ). I feel much better. it slows down my racing heart.

I just wonder is this anxity caused heart racing, or i have a heart problem, since i haven't experience any panic attack today. i get my heart checked up last year this time. echo, ekg, and holter monintor. everything is normal. should i request those exam this year again?

thanks for any response

hiya i seriously wouldn worry yourself over this your heart has been checked and its all good, my pulse is nearly always around the hundred mark and when its hot its even faster, also you must have been worrying about your heart rate to even think of taking your pulse if u wasn panackin which can make it go faster anyway. as soon as you lock on to your heart rate and start worrying its bound to raise
try and relax and dont get into the pulse checking routine
