Recently I’ve diagnosed with some heart problems and they have recommended me to avoid getting excited.

I recall that when I played Tarkov my pulse could get above 120 beats per minute in certain situaciones. I wanted to install Tarkov but I’m curious if there is a real risk.

    Is the actual problem pulse or blood pressure? According to my Fitbit, my hearth rate fluctuates between ~ 60 - 160 BPM through they day. A short 20 second jog can make it rise above 120 easily. But gaming is different. My pulse usually sits around resting heart rate (because my body is technically at rest) but sometimes when playing Tarkov or DayZ my blood pressure rises to the point that I can feel my own heartbeat in my ears while my pulse remains at resting rate.
