Everytime I go to take my blood pressure, i can suddenly start to feel my pulse pick up.
It is worse in a doctor's office, I can sometimes feel my heart pounding and start beating over 100 bpm.

But my resting heart rate at home when relaxed and nothing going on is only in the upper 70s.

I guess I feel some sort of anxiety during those situations. Would this cause a high reading? And if so, how much would it throw it off?

How do you test for these, is there a standard lab test for each???
What's the normal reading for them. What is consider too high or too low?? If its too low, will it be consider as a disease as well??? I like to pinpoint the normal for these two terms.

Our baby of 5 weeks has been diagnosed with the above condition. I was wondering if any of you have had children with the same? Or even yourself perhaps? If so what was the outcome - we're very worried for our little chap.

Every once in awhile I feel like my heart just did a flip flop or a cartwheel. It's not racing or painful or anything like that. It's more like it was just tickled, or turned inside out for a second, and then just goes back to normal. This usually happens when I'm just resting watching tv or reading a book.

My dad always had a dodgy heart and died at 57. This worried me as I believe heart trouble is hereditary. Im now 50, never had a problem and kept myself reasonably active. I had a check up soon after my dad died, (aged 38) and the doctor said I had a healthy heart. The problem is, can hereditary heart problems occur as I get older?
My last check up was 3 years ago and the nurse did not give me an E.C.G. explaining it was not necessary as research showed even if my ticker was beating soundly there was nothing stopping me from rising of the treatment couch and literaly dropping dead.
Can anyone reassure me of what the probable out come could be considering their past experiences regarding this? I occasionaly exercise, I eat fibre, fruit and plenty of veg but must admit am slightly overweight.

I accidentally happened to visit Drnature.com in the internet, in which i read bout Clonix Program, which is a cleanliness program for inside the body. Wow, it was a bit horrible, too, to know what is going on inside us. But I don’t very much rely on what the testimonies they post for better advertisement of their product, if they are true or no. That is why I come up to see if any one has yet experienced the program, so to help me with his/her experience know what is right.
