Hi,

Thanks for the query.

You have provided me with good information.

You have a blood pressure reading of 112/83 and your heart rate is 115. Your blood pressure seems to be in the normal range. But there is an increase in your heart rate. Normally it should be in the range of 60 to 100 beats per minute.

Normally heart rate increases as a response to various situations like exercise or exertion, large meal, anxiety, fever. You could observe if this was the case with you. Other medical conditions such as thyroid disease, electrolyte imbalance, emotional stress or drinking large amounts of alcoholic or caffeinated beverages will also bring about such changes. You also do not seem to be having history of any major illness.

It could also be seen in Heart-related conditions such as high blood pressure (hypertension), but since your blood pressure seems to be normal you need not worry. Poor blood supply to the heart muscle due to coronary artery disease (atherosclerosis), heart valve disease, heart failure, heart muscle disease (cardiomyopathy), tumors, or infections are rare instances where it will be seen.

There is no need to be concerned but you should recheck your heart rate 2 to 3 times daily for a few days and if it persists then you will need to get it examined with your physician.

Till then avoid excess tea, coffee, alcohol and drink sufficient fluids and juices. Do not take stress.

Hope I have answered your query. I will be available for follow up queries. Wishing you good health.

Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.

Regards,
