Hello
Blood pressure is normal in your case.
High pulse rate/heart beat can be due to anxiety disorder.
Alprazolam can be taken on SOS basis when there is intense anxiety.
Other than this drugs like escitalopram (SSRI) are useful for anxiety.
visit a psychiatrist for further evaluation and treatment.
Hope this helps.
Thanks
