I'm a bit worried about my blood pressure. It was moderately high a month ago, and now I'm taking Natrilix, 1.5 mg Indapamide. Is it safe for me to have a can of beer every six months, or should I be concerned? I came across some stuff online that's got me scared, and my doctor is currently out of the country.

View allI've been dealing with high blood pressure for the past five months, and it's really starting to worry me. I get dizzy, have blurred vision, headaches, and neck pain too. The weird thing is, sometimes my blood pressure shoots up after I eat. I'm a 26-year-old female, weighing 90 kg with a height of 5'9". My thyroid tests are normal, but I've been on losakindh 25 mg for about three months, and it doesn't seem to be helping anymore. Do you have any advice on what might be going on or what I could try next?
It seems like your blood pressure is not well controlled with Losakind-H 25 mg anymore. I recommend adding a calcium channel blocker like Amlodipine 5 mg once daily to help lower your blood pressure. Additionally, you can consider adding a diuretic like Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg once daily to further control your blood pressure. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your medication regimen.

I've been having a headache on the right side of the back of my head lately and when I checked my blood pressure it was between 140-160 for systolic and 90-110 for diastolic over the past week. My pulse is around 80-85 and oxygen is at 99. I dont have any other medical issues but I recently moved to a new country and this started after I got here. Could this change in food and location be affecting my blood pressure? Before moving, I was drinking and eating out about three times a week for a couple of months. Could that have caused my blood pressure to spike? Im planning on seeing a cardiologist next week but would appreciate any advice you might have.
Based on the information provided, the spike in your blood pressure could be related to various factors such as stress, dietary changes, and lifestyle habits. It is possible that the change in food and location, as well as the previous indulgence in drinking and dining out frequently, may have contributed to the increase in your blood pressure. To help manage your blood pressure, it is important to make some lifestyle modifications. You can start by reducing your salt intake, eating a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables, engaging in regular physical activity, and managing stress through relaxation techniques. Additionally, if your cardiologist deems it necessary, they may prescribe medication to help lower your blood pressure. It's good that you have an upcoming appointment with a cardiologist, as they will be able to provide you with a more personalized treatment plan after a thorough evaluation.
