I'm feeling a bit concerned. I had an angioplasty with a stent placed and went for a follow-up after 7 days like the doctor suggested. But now I'm feeling this weird pricking sensation and some discomfort. Is that kind of pricking feeling normal after you get a stent placed?

I've been dealing with high blood pressure at 160100, and even after taking medication for four months, it hasn't improved. Yesterday, I was given two different prescriptions, and now I'm feeling dizzy in the morning and can't stand. The doctor mentioned some tests too. Is this something I should be worried about? Why isn't my blood pressure going down?
It is concerning that your blood pressure is still high despite taking medication for 4 months. The dizziness and inability to stand after taking the new medications could be due to their side effects. It is important to follow up with your doctor regarding these symptoms. Regarding why your blood pressure is not coming down, there could be various reasons such as medication resistance, underlying health conditions, lifestyle factors, or incorrect dosage. It is crucial to discuss this with your doctor to adjust your treatment plan accordingly. In the meantime, make sure to monitor your blood pressure regularly, follow a healthy diet low in sodium, engage in regular physical activity, manage stress, and avoid smoking and excessive alcohol consumption.
