Is My Blood Pressure And Pulse Normal Under Stress?

Hello, I am a 22 year old female. I have been going a lot of stress lately. My usual blood pressure is around 126\74.. lately it has been going anywhere from that to 146/78 and my pulse is 118. Is that dangerous or normal for being stressed out lately?

Hello,
If this is just a one time reading of your blood pressure and pulse, then it is not a dangerous sign. But if its remaining persistently high, then you should surely consult your general physician.
Avoid salt in diet and oily food.
Thanks.
