View allI've been noticing that my resting pulse rate is around 90-100, and sometimes it even goes above 100. I often feel these strong heart palpitations. I had an echo done, and everything seemed normal, and my blood pressure is fine too. I'm 24 and weigh 67 kg. People say it might be due to anxiety, and yeah, I do worry about my career and family like everyone else. I don't eat junk food, and I drink about 3-4 cups of tea a day max. I'm just really trying to figure out what's going on with me. Could it really be just anxiety, or should I be looking into something else?

I'm trying to get my blood pressure under control quickly. My cholesterol and creatinine levels are normal according to recent tests. I'm 6 feet tall, weigh 105 kg, and work from home. My BP reading was 14080. Could you suggest a tablet that would help control it?
Cholesterol is normal as per Lipid profile and creatinine is normal after test. My height is 6 feet and weight is 105 kg, work from home. BP showing: 14080. Please suggest me a tablet to get control. Based on your information, with a blood pressure reading of 14080, you can consider taking Amlodipine 5mg. It is a commonly prescribed medication for high blood pressure. However, it is important to consult with your doctor for proper evaluation and monitoring.
