hot and thirsty

Hot and Thirsty.

These are two prominent symptoms I felt a few hours ago that led me to take my BP. It was my hubby asking me to take his BP so I took mine after him. And to my shock, my BP was 160/120. I took one med and drink cold water and relaxed my mind and body. It is now 120/75. This is the first time I felt symptoms when my BP is high. I used to be asymptomatic.

This is the first time I encounter this associated with my BP. I'm always asymptomatic or there's no symptoms at all for me.

@rakski I have a monitor and I do not trust it But I trust what I am feeling When the BP is high I get indications. I have a facility here where they come over and check my BP It is now normal.

I monitored it. I took one med. I usually take my meds every morning. I drink lots of water, I put ice on my nape, and relaxed myself

How old are you? Age and lifestyle play a significant role in your well-being. Being overly emotional and stressed can raise your blood pressure, while a calm and content lifestyle helps maintain a balanced mindset, which in turn supports healthy blood pressure. Embrace a peaceful life with a positive attitude, and you'll be more likely to live free from health issues. Remember, everything is already destined—trust the process.

I don't think emotional stress affects my BP that much. Though lifestyle change is very much needed and sleep as well.

Too high, you should probably be on a reduced sodium diet, and at a minimum sip water all day, do light exercise and eat fruit. A beetroot supplement you can find it capsule form would be good for you too.

Have a good rest. Is drinking water and peeing is a good way also to lessen your BP? But anyway make sure you are not dizzy and if you are just sit down and rest.

It was a good thing that you checked yours. I usually get a terrible headache when mine spikes.

I hope my BP is stable because since the pandemic ended I haven't checked it again. Your mind must be calm so that your BP does not spike too high.

I hope you can check your BP. My mind is calm during the time I have high BP. That's why I was able to get ice pack to put on my nape because I feel so hot

Do you know why the spike? Is it because of the hot weather?
