I recently traveled by air and experienced high heart rate due to anxiety. I went to the ER, where an EKG was normal, but I was dehydrated. My heart rate is now in the lower 60's to upper 70's, which is higher than my normal 50-60 range. When I walk around, my heart rate climbs to over 100. Could this be due to anxiety, or is there something wrong with my heart?
