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?

View allI just got my ECG report back, and it says "sinus rhythm with marked sinus arrhythmia." Should I be concerned about this? Do I need to see a specialist or get a further consultation? How serious could this be?
Sinus rhythm with marked sinus arrhythmia is a common finding in ECG reports and is usually not a cause for concern. It typically does not require any specific treatment unless it is causing symptoms such as dizziness or fainting. In most cases, it does not indicate a serious underlying heart condition. If you are not experiencing any symptoms, no further consultation is necessary.

I'm dealing with constrictive pericarditis and was admitted to Sri Satya Sai Hospital. They won't operate because my white blood cell count is low. They recommended getting my WBC up before they proceed with the surgery. Could you suggest how I can increase my WBC levels within 10-15 days?
To increase your WBC count, you can take Filgrastim (brand name Neupogen) at a dosage of 5-10 mcgkgday. This medication can help stimulate the production of white blood cells in your body. Additionally, you can also consider taking Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) medications such as Pegfilgrastim (brand name Neulasta) at a dosage of 6 mg per chemotherapy cycle. These medications can help boost your WBC count within the specified timeframe.

I'm trying to figure out how long the results of a treadmill test are good for. I had mine done about 28 days ago, and it was negative. I'm also curious about how long an ECG test stays valid. Can you help me out with this?
A treadmill test (TMT) result is typically considered valid for about 6 months to 1 year, depending on the individual's health condition and any changes in symptoms. Since your TMT was negative 28 days ago, it should still be considered valid. As for an ECG test, it is generally valid for a shorter period, usually around 1-2 weeks. If you have any concerns or new symptoms, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
