If trhe pulse rate does not come down or increases in next half and hour, then you should be reporting to the ER.

Welcome to hcm
If you dont have symptoms like black outs,headache,chest pain and regularly feeling your heart racing,then no need to worry. You can consult a cardiologist to run few tests if you are so concerned.
Hope i solved your problem
