Palpitations & BP

Well not concerned the two things are probably unconnected. I would go and see the GP as the B/P is probably a little higher than he would like it to be but easily managed. Don't be worrying though.

thank you for your message, I haven't used a forum before - its really helpful. I suppose I know how to reduce BP really, get more active and lose some weight, but it seems more difficult now

honeypot43 hi and welcome to GN. I'm on the PPG (Patient Participation Group) at my local GP surgery and the policy there is not to contact people if there is "No further action required". So perhaps as you haven't heard from your GP, all is well.

I haven't a clue what's normal - some days when I feel a bit "off" for no apparent reason, I think "Is this what 67 feels like?" Because I just don't know .

Good that your palpitations have settled.

I take medication to keep my BP under control and have a checkup every 3 months. It's usually 13/7, which my Dr. says is good, but what it means I have no idea.
I think you should make an appt. to ask your doctor to explain the results, then your mind will be at rest.

Hope it's not, Tricia. I think you'd be dead.
I think you mean 130/70.

DJ BP in France is expressed as Tricia has written. Mine is 11/6!

Thanks for that, Mamie. I wonder why the difference.
