Fast hr

Well as a result of suffering from large intestine inflammation my haemoglobin is a little low like 10. As a result my normal heart rate ranges from anywhere from 85 to 100. But when i get stressed, goto the bathroom or do little work my heart rate immediately goes to between 120-130. My heart is structurally and functunally normal normal holter ang electrocardiograms. Is this dangerous???

A human can adjust to a low hemoglobin, and in your case it may cause a higher HR.  I had a hemoglobin problem about 20 years ago and didn't go to the doctor until my skin turning "yellow", I am a Caucasian.  The routine blood test showed a hemoglobin of about 6. My doctor said that was low enough there was a possibility that I could pass out.  I got a blood transfusion and underwent a number of tests.  The only problem that was identified was I was Iron anemic.  I too an iron supplement, and the anemia was cured and the hemoglobin came up to 13+ over the next several months.  I no longer take an iron supplement, and I have not had any more low hemo problems... I don't know what the problem was.

The HR is not a danger as I see it.  The low hemoglobin should be treated and if you can get it up another 30% or so you may find a lowering of the HR, I am not sure about that.

What was your past normal HR, at rest and at light exercise?
