Hello! I am a 37-year-old female. My BP is great, usually 90/70, or 100/70. However, lately my pulse rate has been elevated lately, where I can actually FEEL my heart pound away even at a resting rate. I thought I was imagining it, ‘till my doctor had mentioned it at my last visit, which it was 100 at that point. I had taken my BP at the store (I know those machines are not always accurate) but it was the same way weeks earlier. I am 5'4, and 128lbs, my doctor says he is not concerned about my weight. I was just wondering what it could be. I do have fibromyalgia and have a history of chronic migraines. Thank you for your time-
