hi,iam 23 years old..i have been doing (gym) heavy weight exercises since two months.three days back i incresaed the weights in the gym for doing exercises as usual,one more thing i started aerobics also since 5 days.So three days back i did my aerobic and then gym and after that within 15 minutes i took power horse,then after coming home almost after an hour took bath and i boiled eggs in which by mistake too much salt felt.so i thought the egg shell would prevent it from penetrating in the egg.gradually after two hours my heart heart started beating fast and its been three days i havent seen any change..its still beating fast.i went to the docter,the docter told me that its 159 BP ..i was so shocked.she said no need to worry but just dring as much as water as i can...please docs here .please guide me.what should i do..should i take steam bath and swimming or should i go to gym for removing the access salts in body....please suggest me

The information regarding your readings is incomplete. I am not sure whether 159 is your pulse rate or blood pressure (BP).
In either case, I would suggest you to be retain your calmness. A single ingestion of high dose salt does not cause any harm in most of the cases. Your body does have a mechanism to get rid of excess salt. Please follow the instructions given by your consultant. Drink fluids and cut down a bit on your workouts till you feel completely normal. Have a regular blood pressure and pulse rate measurements till you are normal. Stay calm and relaxed buddy. You will be normal in a few days.
Hope the above information helps.
