What Is The Lifespan Of A Person Having High Blood Pressure And Few Mini Strokes?
I was wondering how long a person can live once their feet and belly have swollen. They also experience fatigue, loss of appetitie, wet themselves and trouble with their bowels. At this point he needs a cane to get around and still often falls. He has very high blood pressure, It is over 145/over 95. He continues to smoke and drink. He is 50 years old. He has had a few mini strokes.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, actually underlying disease is matter of concern and not the symptoms if this is not the vital organs failure then it may not be the danger one and the prognosis is good and if the symptoms are due to vital organs failure then prognosis is bad, such case need intensive care management hope this information helps.
