Resting? Or walking: A true resting heart rate is measures after 15 minutes of laying down or sitting in a chair without anxious thoughts in your head. Walking up to the pharmacy's machine and pressing a button doesn't count. That being said, if your resting heart rate is truly elevated, try to find the cause. If there is no prior heart history, Rx may not be needed. Propranolol for anxiety & SVT is often used. TTYD.
