Why are my blood pressure readings different between my arms? When I check my left arm, it's 12080, but my right arm shows 13080. I'm using an Omron monitor, which I believe is pretty accurate. Should I be worried about these differences?
Having slightly different blood pressure readings between arms is not uncommon and is usually not a cause for concern. However, if there is a consistent and significant difference in blood pressure readings between arms, it may indicate underlying health issues such as peripheral artery disease or other cardiovascular problems. It is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and monitoring. In the meantime, you can continue to monitor your blood pressure regularly and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

I'm really worried because my friend's ECG came back as borderline abnormal. Can you explain what that means? Is it something we should be really concerned about? The ECG mentioned things like a negative T wave and I'm not sure what all the numbers mean... like HR is 93min and the axis is 62 degrees. I'm kind of puzzled by how serious this is. What should we do next?
negative t wave could be due to hypertension, ischsemic heart diseases and electrolye imbalance conditions .And echo is advised , post that a cardiologist opinion i indicated.Salt restricted diet , dash diet and regular aerobic exercises is advised
