Raised heart rate : This sounds like a loss of circulation to the head. Why is this happening? Dehydration, heart issues, vascular supply issue, blood issue (like anemia) . See a doctor

See below: Drink enough water daily so that your urine is mostly colorless. When getting up, pause a few seconds with your legs hanging down the bed. If that does not help, see a doctor. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/. Wish you good health!
