I was lying down after dinner tonight and started to notice this pulsating feeling in my left upper stomach area, just below the rib cage. I'm taking blood pressure meds, so I'm a bit worried. Is this something I should be concerned about? What might be causing it?

I'm experiencing this really bad chest pain in the upper part, and sometimes it gets quite severe. I tried using Eno, but it didn't help at all. Do you think I should consult a doctor about this?

Im 17 and dont have high blood pressure issues, and no one in my family does either. I just checked my bp, and first, it showed 13095, which freaked me out a bit, so I retook it, and it went to 13598. Then, I took it yet again, and it showed 13998. Is a bp of 13898 normal? I get really anxious every time I check it, and my breathing changes and I get a bit tense. Can you help?

It is understandable that you are feeling anxious about your blood pressure readings. A blood pressure of 13898 is slightly elevated and may indicate prehypertension. However, given your young age and the possibility of anxiety affecting your readings, it is important to take multiple readings at different times to get a more accurate assessment. To help manage your anxiety during blood pressure checks, you can try relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or meditation. It may also be helpful to monitor your blood pressure regularly and keep a record to share with your healthcare provider. If you continue to experience anxiety or have concerns about your blood pressure, you may consider speaking with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and guidance.

I'm wondering if having a blood pressure reading of 12060 is considered normal or if it might be something I should be concerned about. I've been leading a pretty healthy lifestyle, but should I think about seeing a doctor?

Your blood pressure reading of 12060 is considered normal and falls within the healthy range. Since you have a healthy lifestyle, there is no immediate cause for concern. However, it's always a good idea to monitor your blood pressure regularly. If you experience any symptoms such as dizziness, headaches, or chest pain, it would be advisable to consult a healthcare professional.
