A member asked:
My blood pressure is 118/80 but heart rate is 101. why could this be? i do have a cough.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tachycardia: Your heart rate can temporarily rise while or after a coughing spasm but a resting heart rate of 101 is abnormal and can be caused by fever,overactive thyroid, abnormal cardiac rhythms, stimulants like alcohol, caffeine,nicotine and certain medications. I recommend an evaluation by a physician and testing including an EKG, thyroid tests,cbc.
