Re: 40,male, very high blood pressure
I've had my blood pressure and heart rate get up that high and even higher, but that's what my Panic Disorder does to me every time. BTW I'm in my 40's too. And every time my blood pressure shot up, I felt like or I thought I was having a stroke or heart attack. Unfortunately that's the trickster of Panic Disorder. I think the worse part is feeling tingling sensations just about all over, sweaty palms, shaky hands, sometimes a dry mouth, a floaty head sensation and the constant doom of thinking that I'm about to die; plus your mind is going a thousand miles an hour suppressing all logic.
So I feel for ya and been there. Keep thinking positive thoughts man.
