Question

I'm wondering if a blood pressure reading of 14090 is considered normal? Also, there's been this regular body pain happening. What kind of checkups would you recommend for that?

Blood Pressure (BP) Value: 14090* This BP value is considered elevated, but not severely high. According to the American Heart Association (AHA), a normal BP value is: - Systolic (top number): Less than 120 mmHg - Diastolic (bottom number): Less than 80 mmHg A BP value of 14090 falls into the category of "elevated blood pressure," which means your doctor may recommend lifestyle changes and monitoring to prevent further increases. *Regular Body Pain* To address regular body pain, your doctor may recommend the following checkups: 1. *Complete Blood Count (CBC)*: To rule out underlying infections or inflammatory conditions. 2. *Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR)*: To measure inflammation in the body. 3. *C-Reactive Protein (CRP) test*: To assess inflammation and potential underlying conditions. 4. *Thyroid Function Tests (TFTs)*: To rule out hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism, which can cause body pain. 5. *Vitamin D levels*: To check for deficiencies, which can contribute to body pain. 6. *Imaging tests (e.g., X-rays, ultrasound)*: To rule out underlying musculoskeletal conditions.
