Heart rate while standing

Is there a variation between heart rate while sitting or laying and while standing? Ik heart rate rises upon standing but if someone is standing still for a few minutes does it go back to where it was during laying or sitting or its always a few beats up?

Hi, your pulse will be a bit higher standing, it's working against gravity. A bit lower lying down.
