The hard and fast rules of heart rate while resting:

>100 tachycardia
<60 bradycardia

Any reading in between will be basically ignored by a doc. Furthermore, doctors may dismiss a high HR in the office because they just figure you are tense. Talk to him/her just to rest your mind if nothing else.
