What Causes Blood Pressure Of 123/70 And Faster Heart Rate?
I'm not sure how accurate they are, but while waiting in line at CVS this evening I took my blood pressure and found it to be 123/70. This makes my systolic above the desirable levels and diastolic below. Also, my heart beat was faster than recommended. Should I be concerned?

No, Your blood pressure dosent fall in the level where you have to worry for it. usually if your blood pressure is taken with sphygmomanometer than it wont be in the digit of numb one like 123 it will be in the digit of two like 120,122 etc. even though your blood pressure is not a problem for you to worry. Thnx
