Heart rate: it is difficult to comment with such little history. Given your age there can be many variables which will include medications ( if you are taking) , the medical conditions. you should see your GP to discuss the matter in detail.

Maybe?: Could be if you were in pain or you had some sort of preceding symptoms but a heart rate of 95 is generally not a big issue. Worth discussing with your GP if concerned.

Palpitations: Needs examination by doctor and possibly an ECG (heart tracing) if in doubt. Palpitations can in themselves be associated with other bodily symptoms such as migraine. While a heart rate of 95 is within normal range, an urgent assessment is needed to exclude the possibility of serious conditions. Here is some general information on palpitations. http://patient.info/health/palpitations-leaflet

See doctor : Pain can cause heart rate to increase . Increased heart rate can be due to fever , heart related issues, anxiety etc . Examination and Exg would be recommended, please consult your family doctor.

Headache, lack sleep: Having a poor night's sleep is a likely link between the headache and what occurred overnight. Generally we would consider a heart rate up to 100 to be normal. If it was going well over this or you felt it was irregular this may be worth getting an ECG (heart tracing) for. Presume you already passed through menopause? This could be another link.
