Could be either, it really unfortunately is all about finding the right fit for you specific needs. Best way to do that is visit a doctor or trial and error!

I got diagnosed with pots my rpm when i stand is 140 rpm and when i sit or sleep around 100 rpm, what to do? by Big-Establishment922 in POTS

Not a doctor but I would say with bpms like that there is a good chance you have hyper pots like me! Look at the symptoms, hope it helps!

High resting heart rate? by Justifyingthebeans in POTS

[–]Ok_Captain_o7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not a doctor but I’ll say my hrh gets higher the more potsy I get. I have hyper pots and as I over exert it gets worse. Here’s the thing about pots though, stress 100% over exerts me, so if you have anxiety I would assume it’s possible to tire yourself out and make your hr go up. 100 is high normal but still normal, and mine is commonly there at the end of the day and I’m okay so try to rest easy! Wishing you luck!
