How Do You Know If You Should Worry About Your Blood Pressur Posted: 03-20-05 21:43pm
Hi
I am a 23 year old lady and I am
slightly over weight but I am highly
stressed out. I have started having the
headacnhes that I can't seem to get rid
of. And latly I have benn getting them
really strong after I eat some pork or
something really salty. Should I be
running down to the local hospital or am I
worring for nothing. Also did I forget
to mention that I am afraid of doctors.
Let me know something someone please. :?

If you don't have anything other than
headaches I wouldn't assume it is hbp.
Try going to a drug store and walmart that
has a blood pressure machine to use for
free and see what that says. I know
those aren't super reliable but if it is
high it would tell you.

High B Lood Pressure Posted: 09-11-05 23:49pm
I recently went to my doctor for my high
blood pressure and was told to lay off the
sodium as much as possible. The stress
and the salt can be giving you the
headaches so try to relax and lower your
salt intake.
