Blood pressure problem?

Wow, you've got to get the heck out of that house. Is she your legal guardian or something? Call DHS and tell them what is going on. If you're an adult, then find a friend or other relative you can stay with for a while. \n  If you cannot leave, and I do understand how it's hard to fully grasp someone else's situation... then ask a neighbor if you can use their address for job applications. Just tell them your sister isn't right in the head and you have to get a job to support everyone. Then do NOT put your number on job applications. Maybe the same neighbor will allow you to use their land phone number and they can pass the message on to you and you can call them back when your sister is sleeping. Either way, you sis needs some serious help. Call mental health facilities and see what can be done.\n  Best of luck to you.. and stay away from pork and eat lots of fresh garlic until you can get back on your meds.

I am 22 years old and I have level 2 hypertension (really high bp for my age), and I have found that there are many things that can help drop the pressure. Try eating less sodium (salt) in your foods. Excercise daily. Stay away from caffiene as much as possible or any other stimulant for that matter. RELAX, being angry also raises your blood pressure. Dont smoke. Do not take over the counter allergy medicine without consulting your doctor first. In most cases high blood pressure is un-curable but can be tamed. Usually it is hereditary so medicine is a must. If you do decide to go with the medicine, make sure that it is right for you. I was taking a certain med and it just made my heart race, so I guess you could say it made things worse. Hope that all this helped.

Well...first of all, high blood pressure is defined as anything over 140/90 mmHg.  If you think that you have high blood pressure, then first thing to do is to go see a doctor.  He or she will take your blood pressure once more and if it is high (but not dangerously high), then most probably they will advise exercise, proper low fat low cholesterol diet and will also tell you to not get stressed out often.  Usually they try this for a couple of months and then tell you to come back at which time, they will check your blood pressure once more.  If it is still high, then they will start medication.  High blood pressure can be controlled at this stage with medication (either one or a combination of drugs), proper exercise, proper healthy diet and minimal stress.  Along with your cooperation, your doctor can combine drugs to achieve a satisfactory blood pressure reading over time.  There are always many options available.  Therefore, discuss with your doctor, and with your cooperation, both of you can get your bp under control, which is very essential since high blood pressure is one of the risk factors for heart attacks and strokes. Also, smoking is also associated with high blood pressure...so, if you're a smoker the first step would be to stop smoking.

How's your blood pressure? Have you been able to keep fluids down? This is too complicated without running some tests. You may want to go see your doctor or go to the ER.

Speak with your parents about it or if there is a school nurse ask them to check your blood pressure this could be a possible cause . It sounds like a check up is in order to calm your fears about it somewhat and it may provide a solution. Good luck. I have high blood pressure and this is a possible cause of the flushing but I'm sure there may be others as well.

I would have your Dr. check the pulse in your leg to find out if, in fact, your blood pressure in your leg is functioning well. If you have been off your feet for quite a bit, inadequate exercise or as simple as changing your shoes to summer shoes with a different height. You didn't mention if you were diabetic or if you had any other conditions such as high cholesterol or blood pressure. In any event, start out with your Dr. checking your leg pulse and there are more sophisticated tests from there.   Best of Luck!

I am not a physician but when I had this problem I went to one.  Turns out that my blood-pressure and blood sugar were all out of whack.  PLEASE see a physician immediately.  Have a freind drive you or take the bus but do it soon and please don't drive a car until you have this solved.  Today if possible.

Absolutely NO, no drugs for now.\n\nA lot of causes could be give up Blood Pressure in a NORMAL person.\n\nIn first place you need to VERIFY if you REALLY have High Blood Pressure.  Taking the BP in different days and different hours of the day.\n\nNo a single Blood Pressure value make the diagnosis of Hypertension\n\nGo to the doctor.\n\nRegards

I wouldn't worry about it, your blood pressure is in the normal range. Normal for an adult is 120/80.

These are all good recommendations. I do recommend consulting a physician to determine 1. if you do have high blood pressure, 2. what is the cause, 3. what are your treatment options, and 4. do you need to be screened for heart disease and high cholesterol. Sometimes high blood pressure can simply be treated with what is called lifestyle modifications: exercise, low fat diet, reduce salt intake, etc. However, sometimes a medication or two need to be added to bring the blood pressure down. Hypertension can be sign of other things: heart diseae, sleep apnea, kidney disease, etc, and therefore further evaluation may be necessary.

hi...Well first of all let me inform U that the Blood pressure cannot come on ODD no scale..It could either be 100 or 102 systolic  and  66 or 68 diastolic..But the BP llike 101/67 is approx only..Now let me tell U one biggest fact.Its that just by knowing one's BP, you can never or should never say that the person is hypertensive or hypotensive..It varies with person to person and with disease stuatus and with mental status and with your natural surrounding..Even the best of the Doc in the world can't find the exact cut off range..So Noone can exactly say if 101/67 is high or low..However assuming that you aren't having other problems, I must say that 101/67mm Hg is very normal...Just relax..Take coffee and it'll be fine..Don't panic..

This is question to be replied by a medical practitioner. He would like to know more details as to his age, his habits like smoking, drinking, his physical activity, nature of job, job environment, family problems,heredetary factors etc, his body constitution,etc.\nHow do you measure his blood pressure. where did you measure it. how good is that measurement instrument.\nWhat made you to say the blood pressure is high.\nThere are medicines to reduce the blood pressure if medical intervention is considered necessary but remember once you start medication through out the life time it has to be continued and may dosage may vary but complete stoppage may not be advisable except in very rare cases and that too under strict medical supervision.\nReducing or completing avoiding SALT would bring down pressure dramatically and no medicine may even be necessary!!!\nDONT GO BY THE ADVISE YOU GET HERE BUT CONSULT A DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY. SELF MEDICATION IS NOT ADVISABLE.\nEVEN YOGA and PROPER WALKING EXERCISE ETC HELP BUT THATS ALL IN GENERAL AFTER FIRST YOU SEE A DOCTOR WITH YOUR HUSBAND.
