Symptoms of hypertension or something else?
Posted: 02-21-07 20:57pm

I recently have had 3 different episodes of what seem to be fainting symptoms to me. I have a sudden ringin in my ears, get light headed, blurred vision, sweaty, and slightly nausaus. Im wondering if I should be concerned? I delivered my daughter preemi due to a sudden onset of preesclampsia by csection. My bps were around 210/180-230/190. After my delivery my blood pressure never returned to normal, off medication it was running about 190/130 so Im now on meds and its been almost a year. Im wondering what these new sypmtoms might be and if i should be looking further into them? Thank You

These new symptoms you describe (“sudden ringing in my ears, getting light headed, blurred vision, sweaty, and slightly nauseous”) are very common and not-conclusive. It is difficult to identify if they are the result of a worsening of the present condition (hypertension) or something new. You may consult your primary health provider for further diagnostics.
