[|Human|] About a month ago I was put on nortriptaline for depression . I am taking 150 ml. I was in the hospital during the time and had my blood pressure and pulse rate checked about three times a day. After a few days both I and the nurses noticed an increase in my heart rate . I asked them to tell my doctor (pysciatrist) and found out they never did. About two weeks ago at my appointment I brought it up... She did a manual test and said it was under 80 bpm. Three hours later I checked it on a blood pressure machine at the pharmacy and it was 134... Checked it again a few days ago and it was 128 and I ve done it manually many times and also have come up with these results. Now I m having mild chest pains and need to know if I should be concerned. I don t want to worry anyone unless absolutely necessary.
[|AI|]  Dear Good to talk to increased heart rate and hypertension is very normal phenomena for depressed people. Also becoming obsessive to BP apparatus is also normal. Most probably you are obsessed with your measurement of BP. That is the reason why you are not diagnosed with high heart rate when physician and nurses measure it. Anyway make sure that you don't suffer from any other physical problems. Consult your General Practitioner and rule out cardiac dysfunction and thyroid problems. Then as per his advice consult a psychologist/psychiatrist. Wish speedy recovery
