What Causes Blood Pressure With Breathing Difficulties And Arm Pain?
Hello My name is LaShonda. I am experiencing some shooting pain and soreness off and on in my left arm. I also am finding it sort of a little hard to breathe at times for the past four days. I am a little confused what it could be because I do have severe allergies that I have to take shots for every week. I am also 150 pounds over weight. I am also under alot of stress this week and also I have high blood pressure that I haven t taken in about four months because I ran out and my blood pressure has been arounf 145/88 area for the last few days. So I m a little confused what could it be since so much is going on.
