Question Hello, I'm 37 and have been noticing for the past several months that my heart feels like it's beating very hard. I just took a resting heart rate it was 87. I'm not overweight, about 118 lbs. I've noticed it when doing normal activity and while resting. My last blood pressure was 120/80 which is a little higher than my normal 110/70. It feels very uncomfortable and I've noticed a lot today, a little more than usual. What could this be?
Answer this is probably not a big deal.... but it should be evaluated... talk with your doctor, get a heart monitor overnight to quantitate it to see if it is just an annoyance. Watch caffeine, cigs, nicotine and stress and sleep deprivation which can aggravate it.....
