fibromyalgia symptoms high blood pressure

Although the dizziness may also be due to that, you should get your blood pressure checked as high blood pressure or too low blood pressure can cause dizziness too. As you have wide spread osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia, I presume that you take some form of pain relief or anti-inflammatory drugs. Ibuprofen which is an anti-inflammatory drug can cause oedema, and it may be that that is causing your problem in the legs. I had a similar problem and had to stop taking the drug.

I have had a problem for years with swelling feet,ankles, & hands & wrists. I asked the doc that I was seeing at the time & she just shrugged. The doc's figured I have been suffering for the past 24 years with FM but was always misdiagnosed until Jan. of this year. I find if I stand for any length of time, sit for any length or walk to much I seem to swell. I am in a very hot & humid part of Canada. I think it is part of the FM as there is no other explaination by the docs.

Hi ! Your symptoms do sound like they could be due to fibromyalgia. I can tell you that 29% of fibromyalgia patients' have a positive ANA titer and some autoimmunity problems. I am the Community Leader on the fibro / CFS board (link below). I hope that you will consider joining us because I think you will relate to many of the posters. http://www.medhelp.org/forums/show/44 I would also recommend getting tested for lyme disease if your physician hasn't ruled that out so far.

Magnesium deficiency causes tremors, high blood pressure, fatigue, depression, mimics fibromyalgia. Interesting to note is magnesium deficiency is associated with secondary Raynauds. Vitamin D deficiency symptoms include bone and muscle pain, depression, fatigue, high blood pressure, and also mimic fibromyalgia. A highly significant association exists between celiac disease and autoimmune thyroiditis (Graves' disease and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis).

You are young. But young people CAN get high blood pressure. Any other symptoms? Dizzy? Chest pain? Seeing little floatie things? headache?

Fibromyalgia is a diagnosis of exclusion. This means it is diagnosed when all other conditions have been ruled out. It is not a disease. It is a group of symptoms. Lab work is usually normal in fibromyalgia. There is no true, measurable inflammation even though it feels like things are inflammed. A good and informative link it fibromyalgia-symptoms. org. I'm not a doctor but considering your elevated sed rate I would seek another opinion if it were me.

It could be high blood pressure, or just the normal symptoms of pregnancy. But you should not take a chance if it is high blood pressure, becasue you and your baby could both be in danger. I would go and have the blood pressure checked straight away....

I switched to medical marijuana and keep a blood pressure monitor at home. Since then my blood pressure has been on the normal to low side. However, the last few days, my palpitations have returned. The day before yesterday, they were so bad I was having them every few minutes, and it felt like there was some small creature in my chest constantly moving and wiggling around.

My nurse told me my blood pressure was high and to lay off salty foods which I don't think I eat much of anyway but I'm wondering if there are any symptoms I should be on the lookout for I'm 35 wks today.

I have fibromyalgia, high blood pressure , high cholesterol, insommia. I have also had multiple episdoes of bronchitis. Last month I had bronchitis. This month again I have bronchitis. Could this be a immune system problem? I am extremely tired.

I have just had some blood tests and a stim test and I have high levels of both eiosinophils and cortisol (cortisol was already elevated at the beginning of stim test and then spiked even higher). I don't have any symptoms of Cushings. I'm female, 5'4" and 125-130 lbs.

) @rosie high blood pressure symptoms are blurred vision, white spots in your vision, possibly swelling of the feet or hands, headache, dizziness.

If you are sure, those numbers are dangerously high. Has your blood pressure been consistently this high? Any other symptoms? If you pressure is staying this high, you need to be on medication ASAP. If you are on medication and your numbers are still this high, then you should be hospitalized.

I read that hiv causes high blood pressure when your viral load is very high and your not producing antibodies. I have all severe hiv symptoms still to this day after antibody alone test. My exposure was unprotected vaginal sex. I've had 5 hiv test last one being 42 weeks after the exposure all done by blood drawn from my vein at doctors office and sent to quest diagnostics. All where negative. Got told by another website that I may want to pursue a p24 or PCR test.

With postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome one can have both low and high blood pressure. Mine can spike at times with standing. I do think that was remiss on the part of the cardiologist not to order the tilt table test to try to better determine what kind of autonomic dysfunction your son may have, since that is what they decided to diagnose him with. With the echocardiogram, with that kind of ejection fraction, did they see any defects in any of his valves or anything?

Hi... can anyone tell me if high blood pressure can cause shortness of breath? I just had it tested and it's 191/120 with a resting heart rate is 111... I'm asthmatic, but this is not the same.... I just can't seem to catch my.breath, especially when I've done very little excercise(walking) Thank you ...

m taking meds for my high blood pressure. Seems to be working really well every check since it has been 120/70 .

It certainly sounds like you could have CFS, but I cannot explain the high aldosterone level. Also, the majority of CFS patients have low normal to very low blood pressure, but I believe that I've read that 2% of CFS patients have high blood pressure. (I think it was Dr. Paul Cheney's research. If I remember right, Dr. Cheney was the physician who discovered heart problems in CFS patients). CFS patients often have a low, but normal ACTH level and a low cortisol level.

I am 40 year old female and was recently diagnosed with high blood pressure, around 158/104-110 on average. My doctor has put me on a diuretic, 25 mg. But it seems I am urinating less frequently than before I started taking it. Is that normal? I haven't had my blood pressure taken since starting the medication. I also started birth control medicine, Loestrogen FE and am wondering if that would be the cause of my high blood pressure?

Every other prenatal appointment I have been to, I have had high blood pressure. I dont have a regular doctor but I have midwives. Every appointment I have had a different midwife as to meet all of them before delivery to become familiar. I have been tested twice and had high blood sugar each both time before I was recommended a gestational diabetes test, I then had low blood sugar for the 12 hr fast.

I do think that continued high blood pressure can cause kidney problems. You've had this going on for quite awhile now so it's time to do something about it. Most Drs will do nothing if ***'s below 139/89, because it's pre hypertension and they want you to try and control with it with less stress, diet and exercise. But 160/100 is hypertension. Solace gives you great advice. Get more reading so they can take an average.

So today I had an appointment at the clinic and my blood pressure was a little high, they're making me do a 24hr urine collection & I'm getting another test to see if I have diabetes in 4 weeks. Has this happened to any of you mom's?
