hello,
I have gone through your query.Thanks for using HCM.
Under normal circumstances also there is increase in heart rate on walk.But in your case it is little more.As you had delivery in recent past it is possible that you have low hemoglobin which responsible for this .So please check your hemoglobin,weight gain may also be responsible for this.
you need to check yo control your anxiety as well.I suggest you to add low dose beta blocker to your regular Bp medicine which will take care of this heart rate,
My best wishes
Dr.Rajesh Teli,MD.
