Are my headaches from low blood pressure?

Blood pressure and headaches.?

  • Here is the deal. I had my BP tested at our drug store in one of those arm dealy things. It came out 153 over 91. I wake up alot with headaches that last all day. Could that be related to the high blood pressure? ALso,, a doctor told me that they dont worry about blood pressure being high unless the bottom number is over 90. One point isnt that big of deal. Is it?

  • Answer:

    I think you should see a doctor about the headaches. I'll tell you why, Headaches, are the body's way of telling you, that somethings wrong! It could be blood pressure, eye strain (Computer screen) potential stroke! do you ever get blood shot eyes? Dizziness? Do you suffer from sugar diabetes? Eye test? Do you need glasses? A person should not suffer from persistent headaches, all day! There must be an underlying cause! Off to the doctor young man!!! Have a good day!

I think you need to find a new doctor. The bottom number should be no higher than 80. Your systolic number is also high. It should be around 120. Your headaches could be related to your blood pressure. Since I got mine under control, I rarely have headaches. I used to get them regularly. Get a second opinion! Good luck!

Blood pressure whether increased or decreased can cause headaches.In your case the bottom number is 91 which is not to worry,as it may fluctuate2-5 numbers normally which depends on our diet,any stress or tireness can also cause it.

Alot of factors can affect you in the way you are describing. The common affliction that you are describing is 'Sleep Apnea'. A sleeping disorder where you stop breathing for short times. This disorder will give you morning headaches and will also raise your blood preasure. The most common way to deal with this is to loose weight, don't drink before you sleep or take sleeping pills. Have your doctor send you for a sleeping test. If he/she won't then get another doctor. This can lead to serious medical issues such as a heart attack.
