Get examined: No really normal: Normal heart rate is 60-100 bpm. 130-140 would require both EKG and a 24 hour Holter monitor. You should also get an echocardiogram and metabolic blood work to include a full thryoid evaluation. Yes, your anxiety and panic may be contributing; however, call for an appointment ASAP!!

Heart rate: Such rise in the heart rate at your age is not normal. With exercise, the heart rate increases ubt not with mild form of activities. You may have anxiety which can lead to high heart rate even while sitting such as driving. Or if your body is not used to any activity and you ahve a sedentary life style and are overweight etc, your heart rate may increase with minimal activity. Please see a doctor.
