Is a blood pressure reading of 13565 with a heart rate of 76 normal for someone who has stents in both left and right arteries since April 2021 and also has diabetes along with other health issues? I'm a little concerned about whether these numbers are okay given the circumstances.

The blood pressure reading of 13565 is within the normal range. For individuals with a history of heart issues, such as having stents placed in the arteries, it is important to closely monitor blood pressure. In this case, the blood pressure reading is considered normal. However, it is always advisable to continue monitoring blood pressure regularly and follow up with her healthcare provider for further guidance.

I'm really concerned about my symptoms. I've been experiencing some trouble with breathing, and my pulse rate is quite low at 56. On top of that, my limbs are going numb pretty often, especially when I wake up. It's starting to worry me a bit. What could be causing all of this, and what should I do about it?

For the past 4 to 5 days, Ive been dealing with an unusually fast heart rate, even when Im just resting. I havent been exercising for a few months now, and I can really feel my heart pounding throughout my body. It gets worse at night and when I checked, my heart rate was 103 bpm, and sometimes its 95 bpm, but it never goes below 90, even when Im just sitting. Im staying hydrated and I dont feel anxious, but Ive started having this chest pain that feels like when someone presses on a bone. What tests should I consider doing to find out whats going on? This fast heart rate is really becoming unbearable. Any advice?
Based on your symptoms of a fast heart rate at rest, palpitations, and chest pain, it is important to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation. The following tests may be recommended: 1. Electrocardiogram (ECG) to assess the electrical activity of the heart. 2. Holter monitor to continuously record your heart's activity for a period of time. 3. Echocardiogram to evaluate the structure and function of the heart. 4. Blood tests to check for any underlying conditions such as thyroid disorders or electrolyte imbalances. In the meantime, to help manage your symptoms, you can consider taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol at a starting dose of 25mg once daily, as prescribed by a healthcare professional. Beta-blockers can help lower heart rate and reduce chest pain.
