Heart rate with wide fluctuations

First, thanks so much for your input.
I am 70 years old...my recent weight loss (43 pounds) coincided with the monitoring of my HR and sleep numbers. I lost weight the old-fashion way, no drugs and it took at least a year.
All my medications have not been decreased as of yet and I am on a laundry list of heart & B/P medications.
Yes, I did have a sleep apnea test and I do not have it.
I take a sleeping pill, trazadone 100 mg. nightly. It's not the greatest but according to my app I am sleeping usually around 7 hours per night. And I do have a history of "occasional" PVCs.
No Afib. I am interested in seeing the results of my weekly cardiac monitoring. The night after removal my app showed a rate of 40-143! But during the week it was monitoring my ranges were 38-163.
Will keep you posted once I get the results.
Take care!

I was taking trazadone for awhile when I had flair up of PTSD anxitety/panic disorder. I take medication for that and been pretty much not an issue in my lift until are really serious incident.
When I was taking trazadone I mentioned to my psychiatrist medication specialist that was having some really vivid dreams that I could remember and would really get into when dreaming.
She said that trazadone increases serrotin and thus the more vivid and deep dreams. Asked who prescribed your trazadone if your pulse rate could be responding to very deep and intense dreams. Don't know not a medical or medication professional but could not hurt to asked if could be a cause.
