Should I see a specialist? My bp does fluctuate a bit NSA my pulse is usually in high 90 's to 120. Email me at YYYY@YYYY . Thanks

Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

Yes, you should...
Weight gain with swelling of feet - means water retention / There are simple reasons like venous insufficiency from Varicosity / Some serious causes like Heart, Kidney, Liver - which should be excluded...
With a high heart rate, that should be the priority....You need EKG ECHO, blood tests...
See your doctor

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
