Herpes infection can cause what we call autonomic dysfunction . Autonomic system is the one which maintain fine balance and tight control of the vitals which include pulse rate , blood pressure and temperature .
So in tilly during recovery there may be such fluctuations , Keep a tab on the blood pressure and accordingly adjust the dose of anti hypertensive medication. It will take some days for Sartel H is act on the body .
Also the house components can flush out extra fluid from the body which is reciprocated by slight increase in pulse rate , which would settle with time . 88 Is nothing to be worried about .
