i am 45 years old had appendectomy 3 weeks ago, I take atenelol 50mg for my arrhythmia and blood pressure. I take omoprozole for my chronic gastritis...my blood pressure is a bit high since yesterday I have a headache on back of my left side, my left arms keeps aching on and off, I have abdominal cramping as if I am getting my period but I just had my normal cycle on august 18th, chest discomfort on and off, I am seeing my cardiologist on friday for my four month follow up, my blood pressure was earlier 149/99 and now its 117/89...should I be concern?
Hello, The present blood pressure of 117/ 89 is within normal and requires no treatment. The shoot up to 149 may be reactionary to the cramping pain, and if it is a one time phenomenon that you need not be worried about the same. However, keep a tab on your blood pressure just to see the trend. Lastly because of recent operation, if there is any recurrence of the pain, Get it evaluated to make sure that we not having any problems there. Wishing you Good health. Regards
