Can blood pressure meds lower your blood pressure too low?
Posted by: | CommentsI was put on blood pressure med at the doc the other day. My blood pressure was averaging 140/90ish. I took the first pill yesterday and when i took my blood pressure today before taking the meds it was 116/79. I haven’t take the meds yet because i was kinda worried that if i took it then my BP would drop low.

How can I get a free blood pressure monitor?
Posted by: | CommentsI just recently found out I have high bp and I can not afford to get a bp monitor, I also haven’t went to the dr. yet due to no insurance. I work at a nursing home and that is where I had it checked 2 days in a row and it was high. I need a monitor so I can check it at home on my days off.
is there a link between high blood pressure and gestaton diabetes?
Posted by: | Commentsmeaning whenyou have gestation diabetes does it effect your blood pressure as well. the reason I ask is because as I had mentioned in my previous question about PIH my blood pressure is running high. Also I am measuring 7 weeks to big but that usually doesn’t happen with PIH.In fact the oppisite usually happens. you usually measure smaller and will have a smaller baby from what I’ve read.
I’m doing a science fair project and I don’t know what mmHg means on the blood pressure monitor. I also don’t know how they know how fast it’s going. Do they use some sort of measurement of speed or something? If someone can tell me the answers to those questions then I’ll be hoping for an A+
How can I get checked for hypertension (high blood pressure) without seeing a doctor?
Posted by: | CommentsI looked up in a book what kind of headache I’ve been experiencing based on the symptoms, and it looks like a hypertension headache. It didn’t even sound like any other headache listed. I understand this means high blood pressure, but I was wondering… saving myself a trip to a doctor, how can I diagnose this myself?
I’m thinking I’d have to buy a blood pressure monitor, and take regular readings… totally doable. That would be better than making an appointment, waiting 2 weeks, and paying a co-pay to have him tell me to do that.
What I’m looking for from you is a website giving information on self-diagnosis of hypertension, and treatment options. At what point should I see a doctor? Etc.
Thank you
