A Dr. Michael Roizen, MD , Internal Medicine, answered. If you are enrolled in Original Medicare (Medicare Advantage does not have to file claims) you can file a claim by completing the Patientâs Request for Medical Payment form. You can find it on www.cms.hhs.gov or call Medicare at 1-800-633-4227. Make sure you print the claim procedures and follow them carefully.
Start jogging. Jogging (which is a relatively slow, exaggerated running motion) is an excellent way to increase your heart rate. Start with lower impact exercises before working your way up to this, though. Starting on higher impact exercise too quickly can cause injury to your muscles.
POTS is an unusual condition in which your heart rate speeds up by 30 or more beats per minute with little or no change in blood pressure. Such an increase in heart rate may mean that your cardiovascular system is working as hard as it can to maintain blood pressure and blood flow to your brain. According to the Rare Diseases Clinical Research Network, POTS affects about 500,000 Americans, most of whom are women under age 35.
