I'm 33 and my blood pressure can fluctuate - sometimes it's around 13590, other times closer to 13085. I've noticed that my heart rate isn't always consistent; sometimes I can really feel it, and other times not so much. It seems to get worse at night. Should I be worried about this? Is it something risky?

Your blood pressure readings are slightly elevated, but not in the high risk range. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and make lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, exercising regularly, and managing stress.

Question

I'm feeling a bit worried because all my tests like ECG, echocardiography, TMT, and CT coronary angiogram came back normal, but I'm still having symptoms every day. Could it be microvascular angina or maybe spasms in my arteries, or is it something else entirely?

Question

I've been experiencing palpitations when I'm trying to sleep, and it's kind of worrying me. I got my LDL levels checked, and they're about 173. What steps should I consider taking?

Question

I'm really struggling and could use some advice. Ive been feeling exhausted for the past three years and I'm dealing with severe shortness of breath. My mornings start with a really bad headache, and my resting heart rate is consistently high, hovering around 100 to 110, and it shoots up to 180 to 200 just by climbing a single flight of stairs. My weight is normal, so Im confused about what might be causing this. I used to be pre-hypertensive with a blood pressure of 137 over 91, and then I was on Inderal la 20 in July and August of last year. Now, my BP usually sits in the 95 over 83 or 100 over 85 range when I'm resting, which makes me wonder why my pulse pressure is so low. I was diagnosed with allergic rhinitis and allergic bronchitis in January, and Ive been taking mondeslor for the past two months, but Im not seeing any improvement. Ive done a pulmonary function test, ECG, and echo, and they all came back normal. I don't have anxiety issues and generally, I'm a calm person. It's all pretty frustrating, and its impacting my everyday life. What could be going on?
