I am a 30 yr old female and when I first wake up in the morning my heart rate is 84, but during the day it stays around 96bpm. I suffer from bad panic attacks and lately have been obsessing over my pulse. Today I got anxious after I ate and my pulse went to 120. Should I be worried or is it just anxiety causing the increase in my heart rate? After I calmed down it has went back down to 96bpm. I do not suffer from dizziness or shortness of breath. But, I do suffer from many panic attack symptoms while suffering an attack. Is there any advice on how to quit obsessing over my pulse? Should the 120bpm while having an attack alarm me and should I see a doctor over it? Thanks
