What Causes Headaches And Blurred Vision When Suffering From High BP And Diabetes?

Hi, I'm 40 years old, I'm 5'2'' and I have a medical history of diabetes and high blood pressure. I have a question, I was just diagnosed with high blood pressure last year. I've been taking my medicines just as the doctor instructed me to. But lately, I feel like I'm eating to much salt. I get very intense headaches and my vision go blurry. Today I ate half of a small bag of cheese covered popcorn and a brownie. Now I feel awful! My head is spinning, my right side of my chest is hurting, and I feel like I'm going to vomit! Was all of this caused from all the salt I ate? The headaches I always get but the blurried vision and chest pains are new. Could you assist me in what I should do?

Truely,

Hi,

This could very well be gastritis and reflux problem. You continue to monitor blood pressure reading and avoid fatty, oily and high calorie diet. Have some walk after having food instead of taking rest.

Have multiple small meals instead of heavy meals. Have regular sleep habits and avoid stress. Eat lots of green leafy vegetables, fruits, fish once or twice a week, and avoid meat. Avoid smoking and alcohol if any. You can get prescribed tab Pan DSR.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sagar Makode
