I'm starting to feel my pulse all over my body and it's been like this for about two weeks. I notice it in different places like my feet when I'm lying down and sometimes in my thighs, arms, and even my wrists and fingers. I can actually count the pulse without touching it, like it's happening one spot at a time. Is this something I should be worried about or could it be something serious?

This sensation of feeling a pulse in different parts of your body is known as palpitations. It can be caused by various factors such as stress, anxiety, caffeine intake, dehydration, or hormonal changes. However, if this symptom persists and is accompanied by other symptoms such as chest pain, dizziness, or shortness of breath, it is important to consult a doctor for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can try to reduce your caffeine intake, stay hydrated, and practice stress-reducing techniques. If the palpitations continue, your doctor may prescribe medications such as Propranolol to help regulate your heart rate.

View allI'm a bit worried because I just got some results back and I'm not sure what to make of them. My blood pressure is reading 13090 and my recent echo shows I've got Grade 1 Diastolic Dysfunction. I'm wondering, can losing weight help reverse this condition? Also, my ECG indicates a sinus rhythm, which I believe is normal, but should I be concerned?
Yes it can be reversed,consume balanced diet and maintain healthy lifestyle

I've been waking up with a pretty bad headache and noticing that my blood pressure readings are quite high in the morning, sometimes hitting around 160100. It seems to settle down by around noon and stays normal for the rest of the day. Im currently on Espin AT and Equasite 12.5 every morning. Is this something I should be worried about? What's causing these high readings in the morning?
It seems like you are experiencing morning hypertension, which is a common issue for some individuals. To help manage your blood pressure more effectively throughout the day, you can consider taking your medications at different times. I recommend taking your Espin AT in the morning as usual, but you may benefit from taking your Equasite 12.5 in the evening instead. This can help provide more consistent blood pressure control throughout the day. Make sure to consult with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your medication regimen.
