I'm dealing with Ankylosing Spondylitis and I've noticed my pulse rate is always pretty high, often over 120 per minute. My blood pressure sometimes hits around 14080, with creatinine levels at 0.89. Should I be concerned about my heart rate, and what steps can I take to keep my pulse under 90 and my blood pressure below 12080?

I'm feeling really off because my hands are getting unusually warm, but my body temperature seems normal. I've already been tested for typhoid, malaria, dengue, and jaundice, and all the tests came back negative. I'm pretty worried and not quite sure what's going on. Can you offer any insight into what might be happening?

Given the negative test results for typhoid, malaria, dengue, and jaundice, the warm hands and feeling of sickness could be related to other conditions such as anxiety, overactive thyroid, poor circulation, or anemia; consult your doctor about further testing, such as a complete blood count (CBC), thyroid function tests (TFTs), or an electrocardiogram (ECG), to determine the underlying cause.
