[QUOTE="luceeloo, post: 429453, member: 78468"] Normal resting pulse in an adult is 60 - 80 beats per minute. However, anyone athletic can have a normal resting pulse of as low as 40bpm. I've always had a high resting heart rate of 90bpm, which lowered to about 80bpm with recent weight loss and a significant increase in cardio exercise. However, Nurse has insisted that I must go on blood pressure medication. 2 days in to my medication and my heart rate is a "steady" 105bpm. Not actually sure whether that reducing a "high" blood pressure of 135/85 is worth it if it sends my heart into tachycardia! [/QUOTE]
