Blood Pressure 130/90 by Davidnilla: 10:43pm On Dec 26, 2023 |
For the second time in a roll, my blood pressure is 130/90 My common problems now are palpitations and arrythymia, when I lay down to sleep, I can feel my heart beating all over my body. My heart beats faster when I stand up, even without doing anything. Listen here, when this started newly, there's a medicine doctor gave me, when I took it first, it felt like everything is normal (it's medicine used to treat hypertension), 1 month later, Omo, seems like the medicine doesn't work anymore. At times if I don't take it for 1 week, and take it again, it works perfectly that day I resume taking it, from next day, it goes back to not being effective. What could be the problem? Medicine not working abi condition got worse to be controlled Note - I'm seeing a doctor already, I just wanna hear from experienced fellas here |

Davidnilla: Is the doctor a Cardiologist? If not, look for a Cardiologist. You may need an ECG and other specialized tests |

I don't think 130/90 is too high Though normal is 120/80 I'm hypertensive and sometimes it's 165/100 So, u just need to go to a general hospital to check things out |

Nice2023: The doctor gave me something related to that, I took it once and never took it again because it make me sleepy throughout the next day and I didn't feel my real self. Any idea if yours would work mine, if the high BP is based on family history |

What is the implication of BP 50/30? |

oluplus: That's Hypovolemic Shock. If you're the one, you should be in the hospital by now. |

Do you like jogging/running?Do some regular runs for 40 mins or more if you can,two to three times per week.Try to control stress and sleep more.Cut down on your food portion and diet.Be disciplined and consistent on your workouts, if you are doing any,and not for a short -term goal. |

Doing regularly workouts will supports to reduce blood pressure and also supports to keeps the blood circulation under control. Following proper food diet also helps to overcome blood pressure issue. |

Davidnilla: 130/90 is not high especially if you are over 40. Besides, some are naturally around that range withiout being hypertensive. If you tell people that hypertension can vanish the same way it comes, some will start calling you illiterate. Just embark on lifestyle change and see result yourself. Those that live like a bird don't have hypertension, I hope everyone get the logic. |

yemmit90: I'm 21 years, tho my problem started last year. Doctor asked if any of my family members were hypertensive. My sister just checked her bp, it was the same 130/90 and she's living normal. I'm confused why I'm having serious symptoms with that level, my sister is 26 |
Re: Blood Pressure 130/90 by yemmit90: 9:47pm On Dec 29, 2023 |
Davidnilla: What really happened, you are not suppose to have BP at that age. Even hereditary ones are usually manifest much later in life. Since your sister also face the same issue, it could be hereditary. Remove your mind totally from anything related to BP, stop worrying about it and start living happily. Don't let them place you on BP drug until you must have tried lifestyle change and the symptoms still keep coming. Finally, stop Googling or looking for what is going on in your body over the Internet, you will only end up in serious BP and depression. Virtually all sicknesses has the same symptoms, approach your doctor or pharmacist for proper medical examination if you feel like something is not right with your body system. |

yemmit90: Thanks alot. It started last year, all of a sudden I started struggling to breath, it felt like something was blocking my neck. I tried explaining to doctor, he kept saying I'm making no sense and that all my lungs were getting air well. When I started breathing fine after a few days, my heart started beating abnormally, whenever I stand up, my heart gonna be pounding and fast. My cholesterol was high then, my blood sugar was high (due to eating too much and not exercising, i guess) Since then, different symptoms, at times it feels like my neck is getting very tight, at times it feels like there's a burden on my chest. Doctor gave me anti hypertensive medicine, i felt relieved, after a month, drug isn't effective again and i can always feel my heart beating. |
Re: Blood Pressure 130/90 by Davidnilla: 10:03pm On Dec 29, 2023 |
yemmit90: Also, when I start taking BP drugs, no going back Cos once I stop taking the ones I'm talking, my symptoms starts to return again |

Davidnilla: Are you sure this isn't anxiety disorder What event led to your difficulty in breathing |
Re: Blood Pressure 130/90 by drimzsmoke(m): 10:32pm On Jan 07 |
Davidnilla: What are you taking exactly Propanolol, Metoprolol or Labetalol, Which one |
Re: Blood Pressure 130/90 by Davidnilla: 7:01am On Jan 09 |
drimzsmoke: I really don't know, I was on my laptop and also thinking/imagining about what someone said to me... 10 minutes later, it felt like something was in my throat and blocking air from going in, it felt like I was loosing my breath. The next day, I was driving, I started feeling my heart or chest getting very tight and uncomfortable, I had to come down and lay on the floor to relive the symptoms. 1 week later when I started breathing well, my fast heart beat started, it was worse then. I believed the heart related issues were maybe due to high cholesterol, high blood sugar (130) But me struggling to breath and something on my throat, I still can't figure what symptoms it may be related to, then |
Re: Blood Pressure 130/90 by Davidnilla: 7:03am On Jan 09 |
drimzsmoke: The medicine na bisaprolol fumarat 10mg and spironolactone 25mg When I had new symptoms, doctor removed the bisaprolol and replaced with nebilong |
