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.

Heart function is less than fifty percent, which is pretty concerning. I'm wondering how I can improve it. Is it possible to fix this with medicine alone, or would I need something like a stent or another type of treatment? Any advice would be appreciated!

i means that there is systolic dysfunction or acute angina, papillary muscle dysfunction or any heart blocks..i would suggest an angiogram procedure to the patient to look into any pathological defects..Patient is advised DASH Diet , low sodium intake, consumption of green leafy negetables,fruits and legumes etc..
