I have been to the doctors for a life style check, and my pulse was 108, this was done on Tuesday this week, at work this evening I had my pulse checked again, 108, and hour later 106, when I left it was reading 104.... a nurse checked this for me at the doctors, should I get in touch with my GP??  I am slightly concerned
Hello Welcome to Chat Doctor. Your heart rate is on the slightly higher range but requires no attention or treatment at the moment. I would have been able to help you better had you mentioned your age here.  Heart rate of less than 110 is acceptable. It is a because of a sedentary lifestyle, that the heart is not accustomed to activity and tries to beat faster on minimal activity. Also since you have checked you pulse rate so frequently means you were anxious. Plus rate can vary over the day from 60 to 110. At present no treatment is required.  However, daily exercises especially cardio can help you bring this heart rate down. Wishing you good healthRegards.
