Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
As I see through the reports the blood pressure is highly elevated .
The heart rate is also elevated.
It should be lower than 100 per minute.
I recommend to see a cardiologist for a specific treatment.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
