Possible High Blood Pressure Symptom ?
Posted: 08-19-07 15:50pm

I have been told I have high blood pressure the last couple times at the Dr's. The last couple weeks I have been having flashes of white and/or black specs in my eyes and then get dizzy. Today it got as bad as I went total black in my right eye. But after sitting down and shutting my eyes and relaxing it came back. I had no other pain any where. Could this be a symptom of high blood pressure? Rolling Eyes

I would definitely have it checked out Cathy. The only downside is, when you leave the doctor's, you will no doubt have a couple of prescriptions to fill, and each has side effects. Just make sure they don't give you the expensive pills. Ask for generics as they cost the least amount, but work quite well.
And the best for blood pressure is just a diuretic, no other pills added. For more info, see mcdougall.com.

Do you usually have morning headaches?
Do you often feel nauseous?
