I'm a bit worried about my heart rate and blood pressure. When I'm sleeping, my heart rate is around 58 bpm, but when I wake up, it's suddenly at 7275 bpm, and while I'm moving, it's about 90 bpm. Also, I checked my blood pressure on a digital machine at home, and it showed readings of 12586 and 12789. Is this normal, or should I be concerned? I'm feeling a little anxious about all this.

I'm really worried because my tests showed I have a 22mm ASD and a Right bundle branch block. The doctors are recommending surgery, and I'm not sure how risky that is. Is the operation absolutely necessary? If it is, can you suggest where might be the best place for this surgery, and any idea how much it might cost?

My dad's been on Gardenal for nearly 10 years now, and since he's been taking it regularly, he hasn't had any seizures for a long time. A couple of days ago, he had an angiogram and they found out he has triple valve disease. We've been told to figure out whether he should keep taking Gardenal or if it's okay to stop. Any advice or thoughts on this would be really helpful?
