Hi update blood pressure is 88/67 heart rate is 76 bpm but remember I took bisporol yesterday

Brief Answer:
Your symptoms are not related to the heart.

Detailed Answer:
Dear There,

Your symptoms are suggestive of temporo-mandibulary joint inflammation. Nothing serious!

I recommend taking ibuprofen for the pain and inflammation.

I don’t think that this is anything serious!

Your low blood pressure is probably related to dehydration or bisoprolol.

I recommend taking plenty of water and have some rest.

Hope you will find this information helpful!

If you have any other questions please don’t hesitate to ask me again!

Wishing all the best,

Dr. Iliri

Hello there thank you one more question I wear an Apple Watch and this records my daily heart rate I had a reading yesterday of 151 for about a min but I did not feel it and at the time I was just in the grocery store … then back to normal … should I be concerned about these spikes I see here and there on the Apple Watch … I do still feel the fight or flight at times but I do think that is anxiety

Answered by Dr. Ilir Sharka (20 hours later)

Brief Answer:
There is no reason to panic.

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX ,

These spikes in heart rate could be related to physical activity or an artifact due to body movements.

Anyway, there is no reason to panic, as you didn't feel any palpitations or shortness of breath.

There is no reason to worry about!

Hope to have been helpful to you!

Wishing all the best,
Dr. Iliri
