Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Since yesterday I have had sharp pains in my upper abdomen and back. and even some discomfort in my left shoulder blade. The pain is staying consistent tonight and I just took my Blood pressure at home and it was 158/107.. I am 37, 5ft 6in and 205lbs. I usually have low blood pressure. Could my high bp be because of my pain or something more serious?
Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum. The pain usually appears to be due to the gastric irritation, due to the irritant foods,peptic ulcer, or indigestion. I advise you to consult a gastroenterologist for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have a gastroscopy, and ultrasound for diagnosis. I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms omeprazole, domperidone, and anesthetic antacid gel. The rise in B.P. may be due to the anxiety.If repeated readings show the higher reading it can be considered. Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
