Radial Pulse: strength can be variable. The following source may be helpful: http://hyper.ahajournals.org/content/42/2/150.full.pdf If you are nervous consult your physician. Peace of mind is important and nervousness may aggravate the situation. Best regards.

No.: If you get very nervous, your pulse can get less strong but it is not because of decreased ejection fraction. Get enough sleep, eat a healthy diet and exercise. Your pulse varies all day long. Chinese medicine takes great interest in the nature of the pulse, which is believed to be diagnostic, but they do not comment on ejection fraction.
