Is it bad to have a resting heart rate of around 100? I'm 21 female...
When should you be concerned about heart rate...enough to go in to see someone...?
I'm paranoid about my heart right now I need answers :(

I've had a resting hearth rate of 160 and bloodpressure way under a 100 all the time and it took a lot of complaining and doctor visits to finally have them do some tests. It turned out I have a heartcondition called POT syndrom from my anorexia. So go see a doctor and insist on some answers.
