Hello doctor, I notice whenever I am hooked up to a monitor, it reads a pulse on a pulsometer. My pulse is never steady. It bounces around each second and not gradually or one by one. It goes from 75, 82, 86, 92, 84, 101 and then back to 94 and then to 87. Is this normal? All my heart tests say I am healthy. It bounces within a 15 to 30 beat range. What should I do?
Hello. Pulse rate between 60 to 100 is called a normal range. Pulse rate remains on lower side during rest and sleep and on the upper side during activity, fear, fever etc. During exercise, it may go well beyond 100.  Monitors are machines, these are not error-free. For confirmation of your pulse rate, the best way is to count your pulse for one full minute. If it is within range of 60 to 100, it is perfectly normal. For more information consult a cardiologist online -->
