What Does It Mean When Your Heart Is Beating 130bpm Just ?
What does it mean when your heart is beating 130bpm just because you smoked a cigarette?
130bpm seems too high, no? that and it kinda freaks me out when it happens

don't know if that is actually atttributed to the cigarrete or not...I have had that fast a heart rate when I was dehydrated...try drinking a few eight ounce glasses of water, or more...and see if the heart rate slows down a tad...don't mess around though...Dehydration can cause your bp to go up and everything...The smoking might just add to the circulation..which would be slighty impared anyway from the dehydration. Good luck...(maybe time to quit smoking also?)
