Hello,

As you explain the situation it is not so easy to say the exact cause. Probably you are taking diuretics and they low the arterial pressure and it is the cause of fast heart rate. Better to consult your doctor for this.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
