Why does my blood pressure increase when my pulse is lower, around 62, while it remains normal or near normal when my pulse is 73? I had aortic valve replacement last January and was taken off my blood pressure medication candesartan and put on a beta blocker. I came off the beta blocker in November and went back on candesartan 16mg twice a day, but now my pulse is much higher.

Additionally, I want to understand the chances of developing another cancer elsewhere in my lifetime, the risk of spread or metastasis, and the necessity of follow-up tests. Is there anything to be concerned about, and am I worrying over nothing?
