blood pressure?
i would really appreciate it if anyone could help us to solve a couple of health questions plz…..my husband has had a kidney infection for a couple of months,luckily that has gone now,with a couple of courses of antibiotics,but…now he has got a ringing noise in the back of his head,starting from the top of his head downwards,his blood pressure is 144 over 88,he has been put on tablets for his blood pressure,does anyone know if his blood pressure is too high?thanx for taking time to read this.
well depends if he has been diagnosed with hypertension… it’s not that uncommon. It really depends on the individual and his past medical history and lifestyle(family genes and past illness) His BP is high but depending how high his BP was before meds it could be a good step… really not enough info is provided. 120/80 is perfect BP… 120-139/80-89 is called prehypertension. 140+ is usually hypertension. About the ringing noise in the back of his head I have no idea what that is about, I have never heard of that sympton before.
Good Luck!
Yes his blood pressure is borderline hypertensive. He is in a prehypertensive state to a stage one hypertensive state. You should really consult the The American Heart Association’s website. Normal would be under 120/80.
Next place you need to go is the link below. They are the experts on blood pressure.
It’s a little high. Taking salt totally out of his diet will help, as will learning to handle stress.
Yes, 120 over 80 is the normal he should see his doctor the medicine must not be working for him.
u dont say his age but if he is around 40 ish then its borderline, mine is 150/100 and ive just started treatment, blood pressure usually doesnt have symptoms unless it is extremely high . high bp is usually picked up when visiting the doc for something else. it could be the medication giving him this problemas a lot of them have side effects and i was told its a case of finding the right one thru trial and error. best get him see his doc again to check it out.
Yes the 88 is too high.
Any blood pressure over 140/80 is considered to be high. My doc recommends that i have it no higher than 145/85 and I am on high blood pressure meds(and i am only 23!).If he isn’t on one with a water pill included it may help him to take one if ok by his doctor. Or if his pressure is still high his dose may need to be upped-sometime the body adjusts to it and needs more.Or if he still has pain from the problems-pain and stress can raise blood pressure. just hope this helps.
Yeah, BP is hard to notice unless it is very high, if not can be detected while visiting a doctor for something else.
My Bf found with High blood pressure too is 40.
Sometimes prescription will take forever to get it down though that is the only help from doctors
What he did
1.Garlic …more garlic in everything he could eat with
2.Veggies and fruits more and more
3.Cod liver oil pills
4.Turmeric pills
5.Cinnamon pills
6.Cut salt as much as you could
7.Honey
8.Banana
9.Loose weight even if is two pound
10.More exercise…
Buy the monitor and keep the log.
1.Check while is relaxed and while is not relaxed and see the difference.
2.And you have to check it while he is sitting.
If they haven’t find any heart problem with the things above they will take him out of medication in no time. Honesty someone told us once they put you in meds that is it but six months now he is fine and no more meds but the routine is still here no high salt foods etc
I hope it will help
