Is systolic blood pressure 114, diastolic 66, pulse 104 for 21 year old woman good or bad?
Question:
Answers:
The blood pressure seems okay but the pulse rate worries me. She should consult with a doctor to be safe.
Blood pressure's perfect. The average human heart beats (at rest) 60 to 100 beats per minute. 104 is fine.
That's a normal blood pressure. The pulse is slightly high if she is at rest or sleeping. Caffeine, anxiety, exercise, certain medications or drugs, dehydration..can cause an increase in heart rate. For some people though this is a normal heart rate. I wouldn't worry too much about it unless it is also that high when she is sleeping, if she is sweaty and anxious with it, if it is irregular or if it goes back down to around 70 ish and then races up again for periods of a few minutes at a time. If it is still driving her nuts, she should go to the doctor.
normal blood pressure is 120/80 so the blood pressure is a little low but not badly and the pulse is a little high that is usually around 70 or 80...so if still concerned definitely see a doctor you can also look on webmd that is a great site for finding out medical answers
