I'm 17 years old and I've recently gotten some blood pressure readings like 13080 and 13081. I'm kind of worried and wondering if these numbers are normal for my age. Would appreciate some insight on this.

These blood pressure readings fall within the prehypertension range for your age group. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and make lifestyle changes to keep it in a healthy range. You can try to reduce your sodium intake, exercise regularly, maintain a healthy weight, and manage stress. If these measures are not enough to lower your blood pressure, you may need medication. I recommend you to consult with a doctor to discuss further evaluation and treatment options.

I'm really worried because my blood pressure is reading 140100. I know that's considered high, and I'm wondering what medicine I should be taking for it. Is this something I need to be urgently concerned about? Should I see a doctor right away?

According to me you have to measure your bp once daily and make a report after that we can make a conclusion and if it is prehypertension range we can try some lifestyle changles avoid salt tea coffee stress etc

I'm really worried about my incomplete RBBB turning into a complete RBBB in the future. Are there treatments like an angiogram or angioplasty that can help prevent this from happening? Is there any way to make my RBBB go back to normal, like it was before, so there's no block at all?

Its reversible,visit Cardiologist for appropriate management and have a regular follow up

I'm feeling really worried because I've been experiencing chest pain whenever I walk or exert myself. I had a TMT test done, and it was negative. They tried doing a PFT test, but it couldn't be performed. My X-ray came back normal, and the 2D echo showed 60. What could be causing these chest pains despite all these tests being normal? I'm really concerned about what might be happening.
