CS and high blood pressure

Posted , 2 users are following.

hope u all had a god Xmas.

My question is if u regularly check you blood pressure as I do, do u find it shoots up if you are having a bad pain day.

Mine goes sky high when pain is bad.

Any views please ?

    from memory it was 190/120, which persisted and over a few weeks came down a little but didnt get any lower than 130/99. so i am now on bp meds as my pain is constant and no tests have been done to see which is causing it, pain or heart problem... chris xx
