That's the source of your problem: you are panicking too much and giving yourself too much pressure.

Forget it. This woman would rather listen to people like us when she could be listening to her professional doctor about her medical condition instead...?Originally posted by pqr:listen to facts not rumours lah...
there are some facts in the statement u made but there are also lots of factors to be considered
Originally posted by ahkico:Hi there..
Dun get so upset over this matter.. Majority of us,singaporean are being diagnosed with hypertension (High BP) / Diabetes / Both.. You are not alone..
It isn tat u couldn live a normal lifestyle when u're diagnosed with hypertension.. In wat way do you feel tat u can't?
The onli setback is that you have to be on constant medications.. You reali shld continue your medications, till the doctor deems it fit to stop..
A fact is that.. Hypertension, same as diabetes, is a lifelong "commitment". Taking medications will help keep your pressure in the normal range..
In hypertension, our bld are being pumped at a higher pressure, as explained by many of our fellow forumers out here.. Imagine our bld vessel as a rubber band.. As it expands & expands to withstand the tremendous pumping pressure, eventually one dae, it'll weaken & burst..
thank you so much, i just need info and help, u r so helpful thanks! i will wait and see what the result of my 24hr bp test and see how is it, and see what doc advice, i do not want to take the medication first because i am schedule to go for the 24hr test first, if confirm high bp then i take, if not no point.
u r right, it is scary, vvery scary. that is why i am so scared about.
l
When this happens, stroke strikes in.. It's beta to take precaution than regret when it happens.. Think, how much more worst a stoke can cause disruption to ur life, as compared to the daily taking of medication..
I noe of someone.. He feels fine.. He refused to take his medication.. Suddenly.. One dae, he fainted @ his workplace.. Send to the hosp.. He was diagnosed with partial stroke tat left him weak on 1 side of his body..
He was filled with regrets..
I guess you are unsure, thus worried about your condition..
Taking ur regular supply of medicaions, u need to go to the doc occassionaly to monitor ur progress, get new supply of medications.. Tak the chance & ask ur doc.. To clear ur doubts.. He / she would be the best person to consult..
Type online search.. High blood pressure / hypertension..
You will find alot of information tat might be useful to you..
Of coz.. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle.. Eat wisely.. Less salt.. Exercises.. Etc..
Wish u all the best.. Cheer up!
