My b/p goes up and down - I started tracking a couple of years ago due to going through menopause and I am estrogen dominate.  Anyway, I have lost 34 pounds and have changed the way I eat which has helped my b/p but sometimes during the month especially when I should have had a period or when my estrogen is high(I can tell because of the racy feeling and I get hot inside my neck etc) - my b/p goes up.  I watch this - but I have noticed what I think is weird - that when my b/p is high like 156/98 my heart rate can be at 64.  And then when I have a more normal b/p reading like 134/76 by heart rate is like 89.  That seems a little odd to me.  I would think that when my b/p is high that my heart would be beating harder and faster to make the blood flow, help me understand. 

Thanks
