A member asked:
From april 18th, my resting heart rate has been steadily increasing from 65bpm to 86bpm as of today. nothing has changed- no new meds, no life changing event, it's been making me nervous.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Puzzling: This is well within the normal range of resting rates & your focus on it can actually trigger stress hormones that increase the rate. If you are really concerned get in and have it checked out.
