Hi, I have a history of heart trouble in the women of my family. My mom died suddenly in her sleep. Autopsy revealed thast her heart was 3 times the size it should have been. I had an issue with my bp when I was pregnant with my son. Now, with a change in my diet, and exercising it has come down a lot. However Im still worried. Im 32 yrs old and my bp is 121 over 76. Is that good or do I need to be worried. That bottom number worries me because its always ranges from 70-78.
Hello! Welcome and thank you for asking on Chat Doctor! I carefully passed through your question and would explain that your blood pressure values are within the normal ranges. So, there is nothing to worry about! Anyway, considering your family history and blood pressure problems during pregnancy, I would recommend periodically scheduled follow-ups every year with cardiac ultrasound, resting ECG and blood lab tests. Monitoring your blood pressure time after time is very helpful to detect possible blood pressure fluctuations. But, for the moment you have no reason to worry about! Hope to have been helpful to you! Kind regards,
