What Causes High BP, Rapid Heart Beat And Headache?
Hi I'm 28 years old last night for the first time after eating my dinner I went sit at my computer desk and after a Lil while I started to feel really hot and my hands and feet started to sweat and also I couldn't breath easy and my eyes was trembling and I felt like I was going to faint I went and check my BP and I had 156/96 with I think pulse 100 and it last for a long minute I had to laydown take long deep breath in and out.. Took an anxiety pill to calm me down to see if could help bring the pressure down and after hours everything went back to normal.. I forgot to say that I been having headaches for the past 3days and I thought was sinus or just normal headaches .. Should I go to the ER ? Or is it Normal ? Never had no BP problem in my whole life.. This morning I checked I have 119/80 pulse 93 still Lil headache n dizziness but ok...? Should I take water pills? I don't eat junks, I quit smoking 5 years ago, I don't drink my life pretty healthy.. Just lack of sleep and maybe alot stress (financial problems) and families problems ) I would like to have an answer.. Thank you
Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic. I can understand your concern. No need to urgently visit emergency room because possibility of stress related symptoms is more. At your age of 28 years, heart diseases are less likely. You are having financial stress and you are improved with anti anxiety pill, so possibility of stress and anxiety related symptoms is more. So better to consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions. Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on its solution. You may need anxiolytic drugs too. Along with drugs, counselling plays very important role in control of stress. Don't worry, you will be alright. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
