Raised blood pressure

Posted , 5 users are following.

hello, I haven't had a hot flush for awhile but earlier on today I had a really bad one and I felt quite unwell, when I checked my bp it was 158/107

does anybody else have the same thing happening to them?? 

Would be grateful for any help, thanks Angie

    I am now on blood pressure tablets never had a bp problem before so if I was you I would get yourself checked by the doctor.

    Hi Angela, 

    Messy hormons can cause irregular heart beat and  blood pressure variation.  It is probably nothing, but yes, always get yourself checked.

    Take care

    Hi Angela

    Yes this has happened to me I feel warn and I start having a headache and yes my blood pressure does go up, and so does my heart rate at times. When you are feeling these hot flashes maybe you should take a cold shower or lie down and put Ice on you forehead. You will be fine and do some deep breathing to bring your blood pressure down

    Hi Angela

    I was having a hard time with my blood pressure, the doctor has put me on blood pressure tablets! mine was 165/91 - yours is high, you must see your doctor! apparently a lot of women suffer high blood pressure through pre-menopause.

    One ggod thing isI no longer have sweats or hot flushes with these tablest!
