Cardiologist,  's  Response
Hello,

I would explain that these high blood pressure and heart rate values could be related to the physical activity.

Anxiety may mimic this clinical situation too.

For this reason, I would recommend you to closely monitor your heart rate and blood pressure values in the next days, frequently during the day, in sitting position, after 10 minutes of total relax.

If your blood pressure values are above the normal ranges (125/85mm Hg) most of the time, I would recommend consulting with your attending physician and performing some blood lab tests in order to investigate for the possible causes.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
