I'm a bit concerned about my blood pressure readings. It constantly shows as 12592. I'm also 79 kg in weight and 5 feet 9 inches tall. Should I be worried about this, and is there anything specific I should do to manage it better?

I've just gotten over COVID, and I've noticed some changes in my heart rate. When I'm at rest, it's okay around 70-95, but when I climb stairs, it spikes to between 160-165. Even when I'm just walking at a pace of 5 kmh, it's around 130-140. Is this normal post-COVID, or should I be concerned?

ecg and trop t are advised to the patient..

I've been feeling strange sensations in my heart, especially when I get home after work, and at first I thought it was from drinking too much coffee. I've cut down on coffee but the feeling is still there. I do drink 2 coffees and 4 cups of tea every day. I also exercise regularly, like doing push-ups and lifting weights. Should I be worried about these symptoms? Could it be linked to my caffeine intake, or might there be something else going on?

stop taking excess tea and coffee

I got an echo test done, and it showed mild mitral regurgitation, but no other abnormalities or pathology. Is this something serious? Should I be worried or do anything specific about it?

no nothing will happen.
