?Dehydrated: One possible answer is that you could be "intravascularly volume depleted" meaning somewhat 'dehydrated.'Try increasing your fluid intake, replacing electrolytes etc. and see if you feel more refreshed and energetic and your HR goes more to normal. You have a Positive "tilt test" by HR standards, so if this does not help...you need to see the Dr (best-cardiologist) for a routine eval of the issue.
