I've been noticing these small heart flutters and tiny head rushes almost every day in the early evening, and they're always really brief. I had an ECG about a year ago and everything seemed alright back then, but last night around 8 pm, I had a much more intense one while I was just sitting down, and it really caught me off guard. I'm an ex-smoker, keep myself decently fit with moderate exercise, and I'm not overweight. Should I be worried about this bigger episode, or could it be related to something specific?

I've been using our digital BP machine at home, and every time I check my husband's blood pressure, it's usually in the range of 140150 over 90100. I'm a bit concerned because he's only 30 years old. I typically measure it first thing in the morning when he wakes up. Is this a normal range for someone his age? What should we do?

check it 3 time a day after food and if the bp still persists more than 140 consult your doctor
