I've been checking my blood pressure over the past few days and my average reading is around 14090. When I checked it a second time, it was showing 13089. Is this something I should be concerned about? Can you give me some advice?

I'm noticing that my heart starts racing whenever I eat, drink water, or even when I pass urine. It almost feels like I'm anxious all the time. I also have issues with gas and cervical spondylitis. Could these conditions be related to my increased heart rate?

It is possible that your gas problem and cervical spondylitis may be contributing to your increased heart rate. Gas problems can sometimes lead to bloating and discomfort, which can stimulate the vagus nerve and result in changes in heart rate. Additionally, cervical spondylitis, which affects the neck and spine, can sometimes cause compression of nerves that regulate heart rate, potentially leading to an increase in heart rate. To help with your symptoms, you can try taking medications like Pantoprazole for gas problems and Gabapentin for cervical spondylitis. Additionally, you can consider using medications like Propranolol to help control your heart rate during episodes of increased anxiety or discomfort. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

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.
