High Blood pressure symptoms...need some advice : ) - High & Low Blood Pressure Message Board

I have no idea if what I am experiencing is High Blood pressure symptoms or not. For the last few weeks i have had these strange things happen...first I feel my ears get very hot(they also turn red)then after i feel that happen usually i will feel this strange feeling in my chest, then my head feels like there is tons of pressure. Im not sure if this is associated with High Blood Pressure or not. I have searched the internet using my symptoms and came up with nothing. Does anyone know what could be causing this? Thank You : )

Amberly,

They call it the silent killer due to not having symptoms. I will say this though I know when my BP is high. My neck hurts up to my head. My mom use to get the ear thing and the pressure on top of her head like you describe. Your best bet is to see your doctor and see what they say..Lisa

I am also having a high BP ..initial stage (90/140)..
But as & until i did'nt knew that i have high BP i never felt any symptons.But from since i know i feel pain in my heart, my lefthand viens some times indicate pain etc etc.But i belive this is all mental feeling & that too because u now know that u r having BP.Best thing is never think about this.,..reduce salt intake,..increase fruits in daily breakfast..& keep walking.I m just 25..but what i can say is just doing the above things my pressure reduced...but mind one thing..keep a check on your BP once in fortnight..

Also..do u know what relation pulse rate is having with BP..?I don't know ,,but i know that my pulse rate is 92 pulses/min...

Thx & rgds

a pulse of 92 is a little high. mine is usually in the 90's and sometimes been in the 100's. i also have high blood pressure too and Iam only 18 yrs old so dont eel bad if your 25 yrs old. 18 is way worse. my bp was 160/98, 140/90 and 175/82/ pretty scary to get such high readings in one day. ne way see ya Cj. im not overweight either. Bye
