I'm a 28-year-old male and I've noticed that for the past 6 months, my resting heart rate has consistently been over 100, sometimes getting up to 120. I'm really wondering if this is something normal or if I should be concerned about it. Is this something I need to get checked out?

I'm wondering if a blood pressure reading of 113 over 81 is considered normal. My diastolic seems to fluctuate between 81 and 90 and I'm noticing that my systolic always tends to stay on the lower side. Could you give me some insight into whether this is something I should be concerned about or if it's within a normal range?

Blood pressure of 11381 is considered normal. Diastolic blood pressure fluctuating between 81-90 is still within normal range. It is common for diastolic blood pressure to fluctuate slightly. As long as your systolic blood pressure remains on the lower side and within normal range, there is usually no cause for concern.

I'm really worried about my mom who's 89 and dealing with a leaky heart valve. Every couple of months, she gets shortness of breath and ends up in the hospital. Theyve given her a diuretic for the foot swelling and fluid in her lungs, but I'm really anxious to know what her life expectancy might be like with this condition at her age. Can you shed some light on this?

An echo and ecg is advised to the patient..
