Hello,
The thing that you are describing is called orthostatic tachycardia. Common cause is dehydration. Other cause can be autonomic dysfunction or it can just be a false reading by the digital machine. I need your proper history to suggest further tests. For now, get your blood sugar tested and basic evaluation like ECG and Echo. Hydrate yourself well and get a Tilt Table test (HUTT) done
Take care
