I had a resting heart rate of 105-120+ along with high blood pressure that started after the concussion. I had my first panic attack after lying in bed trying to go to sleep but hearing the pounding of my racing heart in my ears. My dr put me on a beta blocker and had me monitor my bp and hr daily for a while, ekg was normal. It was always worse when I was tired or stressed. It has gradually gotten better and now 3 yrs after my concussion I am back to 78-85 for resting hr, my bp has improved some and I am on a lower dose of medication but I am not off it completely.

I notice that my heart rate even goes up to 130 or more when I have little stress. No physical activity.
Im a bit worried that it could affect the recovery.
