I take about 6 different medications for various different physical conditions. I'm sure they play a big factor in my heart rate of about 120-130 resting.
I do exercise and my highest heart rate is about 150 when exercising.
I'm just wondering what (if any) damage I could be doing to my heart by having such a high resting heart rate. I cannot change my medications, and I'm exercising. I'm a little overweight 215lbs @ 6'1" and am trying to eat healthy.

Depends on what your doctor says. Sounds high to me; but maybe in your condition it is normal considering. I sure would try and find out soon though. Listen to what your doctor tells you.

You need to see a doctor and he will put you on some blood pressure tablets.
You need to get the rate down or you are at risk of heart attack and stroke.
