That is far too fast I fear Why not go to A and E and by the way you will see from my usual posts this is not something I generally advocate.

I wouldn't sit it out and wait especially as the weekend is looming. Think I would consider a and e with a heart rate that high especially as you feel so ill too. You could ring 111 but I guess they would suggest a and e too most probably. Take care.

I too would take myself to A & E, it sounds as if you need some medical intervention to get your heart rate down. Best to get it sorted now. Take care.
