bp 107/80

[limpop]

and I feel heart flutters around every 8 seconds. Should I go to a&e, call 111 or just take a note and let gp know on Monday?

Is that BP odd for you?

It would be fine for me

Regards the flutters....what's your pulse and blood oxygen ?

That’s a normal BP?

The 'instant heart rate' app is very helpful imo

That BP is fine.
Palpitations are common.
cut out caffeine.
If your rate is rapid (over 100) AND persistent and makes you breathless go to a/e otherwise routine GP appointment.

I’d say that is a pretty normal blood pressure.. is that quite adrift from your norm? As for the flutters, I don’t know. I’d be inclined to speak to my gp on Monday but I’m definitely more in the ‘wait and see’ camp with health things, for better or for worse. I expect 111 may be a better option if you’re particularly anxious or concerned.

That’s a perfectly normal BP. Palpitations are rarely dangerous.

Is that lower than you're used to? If it significantly lower than your normal along with the fluttering, I would get it checked. Otherwise, I wouldn't be too worried about the fluttering on its own - it could be from anaemia, anxiety etc

Is that diastolic high for you? I'd call 111 if you're concerned at all, about the heart flutters

Normal BP

That’s a normal BP. What’s your pulse? Could you be low on iron?

This was a typo and ot was 210/80

I have realised as well that ibuprofen can raise already high BP so I'm stopping taking that (I was having it every night)

That is high. Ring 111

You posted this yesterday. Please see your doctor.

That's a slightly odd combination, in that the diastolic one is relatively normal, are you using a home monitor? They can sometimes be prone to error but I think I would ring 111 just to be sure.

When DH had a similar systolic reading he got sent to A&E, but his diastolic was very high too (about 170).

You need urgent medical assessment if your BP is over 200. Go straight to A&E. You will need medication to normalise your BP and ECG to determine any underlying arrhythmias. Don't delay

210/80 would be very unusual - a high top number like that over a normal bottom number suggests a malfunctioning machine.

Try to have 15 mins of rest and take it again.

The type of hypertension I have only seems to be the top number. Isolated systolic.
Ita down to more normal.175/85 ish now.

I'll engage with my GP again on meds

175 is still high so yes get to your GP asap. Are you on any BP meds?

I’ve just been diagnosed with high blood pressure and started medication, my GP has told me if I get a reading of 180, or above, it’s straight to A&E.
