Mine is well over 90. Sometimes its 110-120. My doc has me on Toprol XL (beta blocker) to slow it down. I'm in horrible shape. I'm afraid if i dont start to get right, i'll never see 40. I'll be 36 on 9/11 and i'm very scared. I've let myself go so bad i'm starting to get depressed and may even be having panic attacks of some kind. I'm half drunk right now, thats why i have the courage to say this stuff. I'm drinking way too much and my diet is absolutly the worst. I'm making a note to myself to check this thread tomorrow and maybe i'll elaberate more on my all of of sudden decline in health. Sorry to ramble but im feeling really shitty about things tonight and just felt like venting.
Sorry to ramble the other night about my poor health. Maybe i'm not a gonner just yet. Just got back from the doc, and he says my heart rate is back down to normal and my blood pressure is way down thanks to meds. I feel so relieved that my heart rate is back down to normal. My doc had me pretty upset because HE was so concerned. He said a continuous pulse of over 100 could be very dangerous, and was afraid medicine would not take of the problem if there was an underlining disease process going on. Such as an enlarged heart, heart disease, or even some kinds of cancer can cause evalvated pulse. But, with the meds bringing it and my blood pressure down so drastically, he feels its just due to the fact im overweight, and extremly out of shape. O by the way my BP was a crazy high 199/140 when he put me on meds. Now its 130/88. Still a bit high, but not life threatning like before. Now if i can just figure out whats causing my near constant muscle twitching i'll be feeling good about things. Docs not real worried about the twitching yet. He says lets get your BP and pulse right and then go from there. Well thanks for listning.
