Hi guys
im 18 years old and in good health. Since yesterday ive been having really strange symptoms with my pulse. Basically when I adminster the test myself I get normal readings in between 60-100. However when I used my grandfather's blood pressure monitoring machine I get weird resultrs. First of all I want to admit that I am a hypochondriac and I worry really easily about my health and since yesterday ive been obsessed with my heart. On his machine I get readings above 100...105,103 and around that. However its inconsistent. Ill check once and itll say 120. Ill check 2 minutes later it'll be in the 90s. Check again it'll be in the 80s. Then itll go back over a 100 again. Im a bit freaked out over this. I dont have anyother symptoms...My blood pressure is normal...And I can move\run around fine...Could it be that my anxiety leads to a rapid heart rate?
Any comments would be greatly appreciated..
Thank you
