Q: is there concern for 89 yr old w/pacemaker for 1 week to have concern w/114 pulse and 140/90 bp?

Should an 89 year old with new pacemaker of one week set at 60 be concerned if

blood pressure goes to 140/95 and pulse is 114?

Hi Stonewall,

 

I recommend discussing your elevated pulse and blood pressure with your physician to determine your treatment options.
