To dr anil mehta; dear sir, I asked on mon, apr 06, 2015 the following question; I am 53 years old. During my last health checkup I was found to have hypertension. However, tests like eeg, ecg, tread mill were found ok. My bp varies from 104/64 (taken 2 hour after dinner and consuming 120 ml of scotch) to 190/105 (after exercise). Please inform whether I am alright! your reply was; your bp reading varies, it has got increased after exercise, it is normal, you should take, at least 10 readings of your bp, especially in morning, and get back to me subsequently I have taken 10 readings with a gap of 5 minutes. The following are the readings; 1. 140/84/84 2. 139/83/77 3. 129/81/81 4. 131/80/79 5. 120/78/76 6. 139/87/83 7. 136/84/77 8. 129/84/80 9. 130/79/69 10. 127/84/80 kindly give your opinion on my heart functioning. Thanks & regards, sebastian baskaran
