I'm 21 and I've noticed my blood pressure readings are a bit all over the place. It was 149 over 78 at one point, and then it changed to 109 over 70. My pulse rate also jumps around from 110 to 72. I'm a bit worried and wondering if there's an issue or if this is normal for my age. Can you help me understand what's going on?

I'm trying to understand something about ECG readings. In a normal person, when you look at the R wave in the V3 and V4 chest leads, is it due to major ventricular depolarization or septal depolarization? I could really use some help figuring this out.

In a normal person, the R wave in V3 and V4 chest leads is primarily due to major ventricular depolarization. This is a normal electrical activity of the heart during the cardiac cycle.

I'm a 30-year-old male and I've got an LDL cholesterol level of 140mgdl. Recently, I felt some pain in my left arm and now I'm taking rosuvastatin and torigesic for that. I'm wondering if sticking to a good diet and regular exercise will help get everything back to normal, or should I be thinking about getting some more tests done, like maybe an ECG? My blood pressure is sort of normal, so I'm a bit confused about what to do next.
