I'm really worried because for the past four months I've been dealing with high blood pressure, fatigue, and dizziness. A month ago, I saw a physician who told me my BP was 150100 and put me on some tablets. I started with Prolomet XL 25, then added Amlong 2.5 after dinner. For a couple of weeks, things seemed better with my BP at 13080, but the dizziness and fatigue haven't gone away. I've never felt like this before. Do you think there are other medicines I should consider or any other advice you might have?

It's good that your blood pressure has improved with the medications you are currently taking. However, if you are still experiencing dizziness and fatigue, it may be necessary to adjust your medication regimen. I would recommend adding a medication like Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) 12.5mg once daily in the morning. This medication can help further control your blood pressure and reduce the dizziness and fatigue symptoms you are experiencing. Remember to consult with your physician before making any changes to your medication regimen."

View allI've been having some weird symptoms lately. A few days ago, I woke up with this chest pain and it kinda hurt when I breathed. My inhaler helped a bit, but then yesterday, my blood pressure reading at the dentist was 15074, which is way higher than my usual 120-127 for the systolic part. I'm trying to figure out if I should just make an appointment with my GP or if it's serious enough to hit up urgent care or the ER. What do you think?
sometimes blood pressure increases because of pain also. repeat your blood pressure,and monitor it

I've been dealing with a blood pressure reading of 15498 for the past year, and I'm really trying to convince myself it'll get better naturally, but it just hasn't budged. Do you think there's a way to bring it down to a normal range?
Consistently high blood pressure like yours may require medication to bring it under control and reduce the risk of complications. I recommend you start taking a medication like Amlodipine (brand name Norvasc) at a starting dose of 5mg once daily. However, it is important to consult with your doctor for proper evaluation and monitoring of your blood pressure.

If my ECG and TMT tests are normal, could there still be a risk of heart issues? Also, how long is the TMT test considered valid?
nothing will happen.
