Long term sitting : This needs to be evaluated in person More information is needed . After reading this, alone (and the information is very limited) I am concerned about a clot. There are many other possibilities, but a clot is an emergency.

Sitting unrelated.: Sitting 5-6 hrs does not cause heart problems. A heart of 150/min clearly not normal. You should get an evaluation to explain increased heart rate. You will probably need a Holter monitor to document these events. Monitor recordings may also provide an explanation. Please see a cardiologist.
