How much increased? Normal is between 60 and 80.Does anyone else find that they have increased heart rate just wondered if it anything to with being diabetic
Hi Jackie, I had a fast heart rate which eventually resulted in atrial fibrillation which in turn meant I had to have defibrillator fitted. I can't confirm if this was as a result of being diabetic but would advise asking your GP.Sorry, I didnt mean to alarm you !Does anyone else find that they have increased heart rate just wondered if it anything to with being diabetic
There is some research (https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2015/05/150522083513.htm) showing that a faster heart rate could indicate diabetes but that doesn't necessarily mean the converse is true. My heart rate is usually around 70. It's going to be another example of all of us being different, some people will experience a faster heart rate and others will experience a slower heart rate and then some will be normal, whatever normal is.Does anyone else find that they have increased heart rate just wondered if it anything to with being diabetic

Mine is according to my fitness bracelet 65 at the moment but every now and then seemingly at random times I get a high heart rate alarm don't know why.

well I think it can be related to stress, high blood pressure , or in rare cases very be caused by low level of iron in ones body... and even more seldom because of internal bleeding .... but most often I think it can be caused by a high metabolism...
I don't have a low metabolism, but I don't have a high heart rate.
Well, I don't notice any effect from the 'diets wreck your metabolism' brigade, my heart rate never changed, so it can't be true.
Doubt it just at random times , to be honest I have never experienced such a thing.Panic attack?
Atrial fibrillation doesn't usually lead to having a defibrillator. I have had it for years, but pretty much completely controlled by medication. Prolonged high blood sugars lead to nerve damage, including to the vagus nerve. I believe that my AF, which is mostly vagal, may have been caused by this long before I knew anything abut diabetes. I am hoping against hope that if I can control my bg for long enough, the damage to my vagal nerve may be healed. Just as doctors often say that diabetes is inevitably progressive, they say the same about AF. I hope to prove them wrong on both counts.Hi Jackie, I had a fast heart rate which eventually resulted in atrial fibrillation which in turn meant I had to have defibrillator fitted.

When do you measure it? At rest or when active? How high? High and stable or high and irregular? I like to measure mine while still in bed first thing in the morning. I record it each day and am able to make comparisons going back years.Does anyone else find that they have increased heart rate just wondered if it anything to with being diabetic
