How many days of high bp affect heart
I had high blood pressure and it was 140/100 and doctor suggested me to do physical exercises as it was single reading(one doctor suggested to start medicine) and monitor blood pressure, when I check in home it's fluctuating between128/88 to 137/94 it was never 140/100 again till date. I am doing jogging everyday and stopped oily and more salt foods. Delaying medicine will affect my kidneys or heart??
Recenty I am having inconvenience in heart ( doesn't feel as pain) since 5 days, I am having burpings also. I heard indigestion also symptom of heart disease. Do I have any heart disease.
You do not require medicines. Physical exercises and reduced salt intake will suffice.
Pain in epigastrium or loose stools may be the presenting symptoms in some patients with myocardial infarction ( heart attack).
Tread mill test and echocardiography are advisable to rule out any heart disease .
