View allI've been using our digital BP machine at home, and every time I check my husband's blood pressure, it's usually in the range of 140150 over 90100. I'm a bit concerned because he's only 30 years old. I typically measure it first thing in the morning when he wakes up. Is this a normal range for someone his age? What should we do?
check it 3 time a day after food and if the bp still persists more than 140 consult your doctor

I've been having these episodes where my heart rate goes all over the place, and I keep feeling chest pain and discomfort throughout the day. I have my Holter monitor report with me, and I'm not really sure what it means. Can you help me understand what's going on and what I should do next?
Fluctuating heart rate and recurrent chest pain can be concerning, and reviewing your Holter monitor report with a healthcare provider is essential for proper diagnosis. The Holter monitor will provide detailed information about your heart's activity over 24-48 hours, capturing any irregularities or arrhythmias that might explain your symptoms. If the Holter report shows any abnormalities, your doctor may recommend further evaluation or treatment. If the report is normal, your symptoms might be related to other conditions such as anxiety, gastrointestinal issues, or musculoskeletal problems. Please ensure you discuss the Holter report findings with your cardiologist to develop an appropriate treatment plan based on your specific condition.
