What does high blood pressure headache feel like?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
According to the research available, most studies show that headache is not a symptom of high blood pressure unless a person is in hypertensive crisis. Hypertensive crisis is a medical emergency where blood pressure is more than 180/120 mm Hg with other symptoms such as nose bleed, chest pain and breathlessness. During this episode, headache can occur which is usually on both sides, pulsating type and increases with activity.

View allI've recently been paying attention to my heart rate and I'm not really sure if it's normal or not. Right as I was about to fall asleep, I checked my Apple Watch and saw my heart rate was around 50-60 bpm. Sometimes it speeds up quickly even though I don't work out much. I think maybe I'm dealing with anxiety or exam stress. Is this kind of thing normal?
Just as you were falling asleep, a heart rate of 50-60 bpm is within the normal range for adults at rest. However, if you are experiencing rapid increases in heart rate due to anxiety or stress, you may benefit from a beta-blocker medication like Propranolol. The usual dosage for anxiety is 20-40mg taken 3-4 times daily. It can help reduce the physical symptoms of anxiety, such as rapid heart rate.

I've been having this regular pain on the left side of my chest for about a week now, and after getting some cardiac tests done, they mentioned things like Sinus bradycardia with Sinus arrhythmia and Hyperacute T waves. I'm having some breathlessness too, but my heartbeat is at 58. The TIPI probability of ACI came out as 9. I'm really hoping you could help me understand what all of this means and if it's something I should be really worried about. Would love some guidance on this!
kindly visit a cardiologist

I'm 19 and I've been feeling my heart skip a beat for a few seconds, along with a feeling of heaviness in my chest. My ECG and sinus rhythm came back normal, but I can't help but worry if this is something to be concerned about, especially since I have anxiety issues. What do you think?
These symptoms can be related to your anxiety issues. However, if you are experiencing skipped heartbeats and chest heaviness, it is important to rule out any underlying cardiac issues. Since your ECG and sinus rhythm are normal, you may benefit from medications like Propranolol (Inderal) to help with the physical symptoms of anxiety. The usual dosage for Propranolol is 20-40mg taken orally 2-3 times a day. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques and seeking therapy for your anxiety may also be beneficial.
