High Blood Pressure
Monitor The Symptoms Of High Blood Pressure Carefully
The American statistics are staggering.
Around 50 Millions of Americans are the patients of high blood pressure.
And 30% of these patients do not even know that they have this silent
killer disease within them! Can something be done about this?
Are you happy that ignorance is bliss?
You must
have heard about sudden strokes? Yesterday, the man was perfectly
alright by any standards. But today he is lying in the hospital with a
paralytic stroke. Half of his body is not working! This is the silent
doing of the high blood pressure!
You need to understand
yourself, to understand high blood pressure. It has no definite
symptoms. But if you have nosebleeds which are more than normal, if you
feel dizzy, if you have dull ache at the back of your head, get a
thorough check up from your doctor. Without any of these, you may still
have blood pressure.
You have to watch yourself carefully, more
and more carefully if you have any of these signs repeatedly bothering
you. These conditions are not the result of high blood pressure, but
they can take you to the pedestal of blood pressure. They are excessive
perspiration, too much urination, irregular heartbeat (which is also
known as palpitation) and general weakness. These are the sub-ways that
can lead to high blood pressure. The damaging part of this disease is
its surprise element. You are down, before you realize, what has
happened.
If you have the slightest misapprehension, make it a
habit to get your blood pressure checked regularly. If you are
overweight, you have all the more reasons to do such
check-ups.
It is high time for you
to make a thorough review about your diet. Lifestyle changes do more to
help the cause of your health than the effect of all the medications put
together.
Buy a good quality blood pressure
monitor and maintain a recording that you can show to your doctor. You
need to make a habit of taking reading at a fixed time. The increase in
the blood pressure can not be without any reason. Suppose you have taken
some tempting junk food, and within the next few hours you feel
uneasiness, check your blood pressure immediately. If there is an
increase, at least you now realize the reasons.
You have to
control your blood pressure by all means. Even the trial and error
methods!
