Normal Pulse - Heart rate?

Question

Hi Everyone,

For the last couple of weeks my heart has beat at 108 a minute while relaxing. I've also just been diagnosed with Ocular migranes (Migranes in the eye). I was wondering if there is a connection with the two of those and if I should get anything specific checked out.

Thanks
Deborah

hi deborah...first of all how old are you coz age does matters...:) anyway, normally adults have normal range pulse rate of 60-100 beats per minute...when did that start( onset), for how long now...aside from ocular migraine...are there any other abnormal or uncomfortable feelings or sensations you are feeling?...what are the relieving conditions in your casedid you take any medications whatsoever to relieve those symptoms?...if it really makes you so uncomfortable...you better have yourself checked...the earlier the better...they will ask you the same things i asked you and there'll be more...

Answer 2

Normal pulse rate should be around 60 to 80 beats per minute for an adult. 108 is a bit high especially when relaxing. so I would go get it checked out. If you exercise regularly this might cause your pulse to be more rapid but yes go get this checked out.

Answer 3

any heart rate over 100 is considered tachycardia, most people who smoke have tachycardia, most people that drink coffee have tachycardia, most people who do not exercise regularly are predisposed to tacycardia, and those who do not consume enough water in a day are also predisposed to tachycardia. because sometimes tachycardia raises blood pressure it could be responsible for your migraines, but I think the reverse is more likely true, that your migraines bring on the tachycardia, it is a common response to pain.

Answer 4

The first response was blood pressure, not heart rate.
