Avatar f tn The hallmark symptom of POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome) is an increase in heart rate from the supine (lying down with the face up) to upright position of more than 30 beats per minute or to a heart rate greater than 120 beats per minute within 12 minutes of head-up tilt.

Avatar n tn My husband has higher blood pressure when lying down. When he stands he falls and is dizzy. Also has chest pains.Last night his blood pressure went from 176/78 to 109/68 when he stood up.Less than 2 minutes between readings. What can cause this.
Avatar n tn i take 50mg of atenolol a day which slows my heart rate but whenever i am lying down i feel my heart in my throat and it forces me to make sounds and cough. this is very annoying. sometimes my heart stops for a second and i can't breath for that second. my heart rate is anywhere from 47-61 lying down and i still get these extra beats. does anyone here know if it is possible to get them with a slower rate? i have seen 3 cardiologists and asked for a holter monitor and none would give me one.
Avatar m tn Gravity has got to be the cause it dont happen while standing imagine your heart on its side leaning on proberbly one of the veins or aerteries i dont know the correct term, most of us are upright for 15 to 18 hours or so then when we lie down it has got to be touching parts it dont normally. plus you have your heart regulating itself to a more relaxed heartbeat thats the one that makes you jump just has your nodding off because your brain has not quite switched to sleep mode.
Avatar n tn Hi, I am 47, 5'4", 118lbs. I quit smoking in '99. My bp is 117/72. I walk at least a mile almost everyday. I don't get winded, yet my resting heart rate is 80. Should I be concerned?
Avatar f tn I do some physical activity but nothing strenous. Is 58bpm too low? My usual heart rate is between 68-80 when sitting down/working. Please help!
Avatar m tn also, slight amplitude difference as well. You may try to increase your heart rate when lying down, and you will see the difference.
Avatar m tn m 39 years old male and in good shape use to play sport before my accident ,about 2 years ago I had head injury ( concussion) I suffer from a few different thing because of that but one of my symptoms is a fast heart rate, My HR and BP was normal before the accident my BP still runs normal but not my heart rate, at rest its, sitting lying down it will usually drop to about 100, sometime time it goes a little lower 85 to 100 some it doesn't come down to 100 it stays 100-115, when standing or
Avatar f tn I have periods of fluctuating BP, where I will have a terrible headache and head pressure along with nausea. I'll check my BP and it will be like 178/94 with heart rate of 60, and I'll be breathing fast. A couple of hours later, it will be 120/64 with heart rate of 44 and the headache will be almost gone. I'm on three BP meds, Lisinopril 10 mg bid, Coreg .25 bid, and Verapamil 240 bid, which I take faithfully.
808425 tn?1371092328 If your last heart check-up was a "few years ago", I'd say it is time to see the cardiologist again. While a HR of 100 at rest is too high for most of us I don't believe it is considered tachycardia speed. But, it should be checked. I have "rate controlled" AFib, and with 100 mg Metoprolol my rest HR runs mostly in the 80s, sometimes in the 70s if really resting. When walking on the level it runs around 100.
Avatar m tn My heart rate goes up and down all day long in severe fashion. Its hard to sleep bc it drops to low 40s and if I start to walk it jumps up to 90-100s. The crazy thing is it goes up and down just as fast and with this I feel exhausted. Any ideas. example. right before I got in bed my heart rate was 82,as soon as I lay down and doze off my body feels like it is being drained so I check my heart rate and its 41 so I get up.
Avatar n tn I took Norco painkiller. After a couple of days I noticed high heart rate when lying down, couple of times it grew so uncomfortable that I had to walk around a bit to feel comfortable. This has been now going on for almost 5 days and I feel almost perfect during the day, but when laying down at night and sometimes even getting up in the morning, it is disturbing. High heart rate, thumping heart beat is the symptom. Please suggest if this is not normal.
Avatar n tn ve noticed that my resting heart rate is about 60 when sitting or lying down, and my bp is about 120/80, but when I stand up my heart rate goes up to 94. My bp stays about 120/80. I sometimes get a sort of rushing very brief vertigo. This lasts less than 5 seconds though. Is this normal? Is this something to worry about? If so whats my next step? Schedule an echo-cardiogram?
Avatar f tn Where did you read that ? I have never ever heard that. My baby had a heart rate of 186 and I had the down syndrome screening and it was negative.
Avatar f tn A tilt table test was positive, and it was also found that I have a lower heart rate, around 50. I am on lisinopril, 20 mg, for blood pressure, I have adrenal surges and the medicine keeps me from spiking, and have been on the same medicine for about 6 years now. I have been seeing an EP, who has performed a 30 day heart monitor test, ECHO, and stress test, all came back OK he said.
Avatar f tn Hi, I am 24 years old, Have not been very active latley and could eat better, monday i caught my daughters stomach virus and threw up and had diarrha for about 7 hours, now I have a sore troat and feel like i am getting sick, well last night around 12 i ate some food lying down , it had alot of pepper on it , then i woke up with fast heart rate. and it is still fast but not as fast. What do you think could be causing this? Was it because i ate food lying down?
Avatar n tn One night when I was about to sleep, I checked my heart rate and it was 62. I heard normal heart rate should be between 60 - 100. Mine seems to be slipping down. This gave me a small panic attack and my anxiety is back. I heard that slow heart rates can cause sudden death. I am afraid for my health. I cannot stop on Carbimazole and the little Propranolol that I take. Should I approach a specialist or do you thing that this condition is benign?
Avatar m tn im a bit of a health freak and ive been reading a lot about cardiomyopathy and heart failure symptoms and these symptoms sound a lot like some things I was going through . I was having pretty bad palpitations every day for quite some time it feltlike my heart would just flutter every so often through out the day . but this hasn't happened in the last 2 and a half or three weeks . its almost like the flutters have completely gone away .
Avatar f tn How about trying exercise? Do you have anything else going on with your heart? It does sound like your doctor thinks it is okay. You can start out slow, a walking program and build up to 30-40 minutes most days of the week, or longer. Talk to your doctor about a good cardiovascular exercise program. Medications I think would be a last resort. I take a BB just for the condition you describe and it can get frustrating.
Avatar m tn Earlier today I was taking my pulse, and found that when lying on my left side my heart rate was about 68 beats per minute...when lying on the right side, my heart rate was about 80. Is it normal for there to be such a large difference between heart rates when you're lying on different sides?
