I'm a little worried because my Perfusion Index (PI) is consistently over 20, sometimes hitting 21, when I check my oxygen saturation with my oximeter. My saturation level is normal, between 95 and 99, and so is my heart rate. But I'm not sure if a high PI is indicative of any serious health conditions, or if it's a sign that the oximeter might be inaccurate. Could you provide some guidance on whether a high PI should be a concern, or if it's something I shouldn't worry too much about?

I'm wondering if having a blood pressure reading of 12060 is considered normal or if it might be something I should be concerned about. I've been leading a pretty healthy lifestyle, but should I think about seeing a doctor?

Your blood pressure reading of 12060 is considered normal and falls within the healthy range. Since you have a healthy lifestyle, there is no immediate cause for concern. However, it's always a good idea to monitor your blood pressure regularly. If you experience any symptoms such as dizziness, headaches, or chest pain, it would be advisable to consult a healthcare professional.
