A rapid heart rate only on certain days, orthostatic hypotension some days not others...these must be the most frustrating for both patient & doctor.

See doc: With your symptoms you should see a physician. They can put a holter monitor on you to determine the exact burden of these heart rates and the rhythm that you are in.
