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.

I'm experiencing some heart palpitations and my pulse rate is around 90. I recently did an ECG, 2D ECO, and blood tests including the complete blood count, but everything came back normal. I'm just trying to figure out what could be causing these palpitations. Any thoughts on what might be going on?

The normal test results indicate that there may not be a serious underlying issue causing your heart palpitations. However, there are several potential reasons for experiencing heart palpitations despite normal test results. Some common causes include anxiety, stress, caffeine intake, dehydration, anemia, thyroid disorders, or certain medications. In your case, since the tests have already been done and are normal, I would recommend trying to manage stress levels, reducing caffeine intake, staying hydrated, and ensuring a balanced diet. If palpitations persist or worsen, a medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) can be prescribed to help regulate your heart rate.

I'm 25 and recently had a pre-employment medical check-up where they did an ECG. The person doing the test said it was abnormal, but after doing it again, they mentioned it's not a big deal. I've never had any health issues or needed to see a doctor before, so I'm not sure how to feel about this. Is this something I should be worried about?

Having an abnormal ECG at a young age like 25 can be concerning, but it doesn't always indicate a serious problem. It's important to follow up with a healthcare professional for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can consider taking low-dose aspirin (75-100mg) daily to help reduce the risk of any potential cardiovascular issues.

I've been having this strong pulse in my neck every time I lie down, and it's really affecting my sleepit's like I can feel my heart pounding too hard, and sometimes it makes me feel breathless with some chest pain coming and going. I saw a cardiologist, and they said my heart's okay since my ECG and 2d echo came back normal. My thyroids fine, and my blood pressure usually sits between 11060 to 11075. I'm on Inderal 10 mg, been taking it for about 12 days now. What could be causing these issues, and how can I fix it?

Yes continue that medicine and follow your doctors advice,no need to worry you will be fine
