Advertising current in nrf52832 increase-decrease at higher interval.

Currently I am facing strange issue in my project. Let me first highlight my set up. I am using the PCA10040 kit for development, keep multi-meter in series to measure current. Use"experimental_ble_app_eddystone" reference code of SDK 12.2.0 for single slot advertise at every 1 second with a payload of 31 bytes. Now the problem is when advertising starts current going to increase from ~3 uA to ~130 uA which will take around a minute to reach the peak(let say 130 uA) after reaching peak current it gradually decrease to around ~3 uA. Then repeat above cycle. Here current increase or decrease at advertise time only (at every 1 second) except it is 2 uA reading on multi-meter. If anyone knows what's going wrong please let me help.

Thanks in advance for your support.
