How does having congestive heart failure affect your life?

Congestive Heart failure + Hypertension = Matter of life and death. Please help?

  • There's this woman I know who is 47 years old. Her blood pressure is 200 over 95, and she's showing symptoms of congestive heart failure (Swelling of the feet & ankles, and some of her body has seemed to be filling up with fluid) This was a couple of days ago; she seems to be doing better, and the swelling has gone down a little. She's now under the impression that her time has come, and that something bad is going to happen to her soon, and to be honest I don't know if I should disagree with that. Let me know what she should do.

  • Answer:

    Run her to the hospital now!

Neither heart failure or hypertension can be cured. BUT they can both be controlled with diet and medications. This woman definitely needs to get her blood pressure under control and to be tested to see if she is in heart failure. Either take her to an urgent care facility or a doctor as soon as possible. With proper medications and diet, she could live a good long life!

Get her to the hospital. Why on earth are you fooling around on Yahoo? I would call 911.

I agree with previous answers; she needs help fast. And a good heart specialist.

Go to the hospital now, she is going to have stroke with blood pressure that high!

Of course, there is less breathable oxygen in the air, because space agencies blowing away by gigatons of it into space. Why? Because you do not mind to talk against, ad they care about dead places.
