I am a 54 yr old female, who started taking thyroid medication over a year ago.  Normally my BP is about 108/72, even though I weigh 200 lbs.  For the past 3 weeks I get vertigo every time I look up or when I move my eyes to fast.  I also starting noticing things floating in my vision.  This morning, I thought my BP was low, as when I got up, I kept feeling like I was going to faint or vomit, but when my neighbor took my BP I was shocked to see it at 137/104, even though my pulse was normal at 70.  Currently I am on another island then where my doctor is, so should I wait until I get back home in a few weeks, or should I have things checked out now?  I am also going thru menopause, so it is hard for me to tell if these symptoms are related.
Hey, Menopause per se do not increase your BP but increasing age does. The symptoms you are telling needs further assessment. Seeing things in front if eye needs urgent consultation with an eye specialist. You need to further monitor your BP as a single reading of high BP is not that significant. So I recommend you to go immediately to nearby medical facility with an eye specialist. Thanks Chat Doctor.
