what do you think?

posted 23rd Nov
What does this sound like to you?

I have had moderately high blood pressure (at rest its normally 145/90, so not horrible), vertigo (nausea, dizziness, visual ora), and massive migraines that end with me puking violently.

I have seen my doctor about this and she doesn't think these things are related and thinks that I'm too young for any of these things, individually, to be a concern.

Somehow, I dont agree. I need to find a new doctor but I haven't had time. Anyone have a clue what causes all this? It all started after a molar pregnancy I had. I mentioned that to by obgyn but he isn't concerned... No one seems to be concerned.

I'm not sure, but I agree with you finding a new doctor! I think high blood pressure is a concern especially if you're young...

All of the other symptoms could be caused by the high blood pressure.
Are you on meds for it? I would definitely get a second opinion, those can all affect your life quite a bit.

They did a blood test I have low cholesterol... And everything looks normal. I had an EKG done for the vertigo and my heart seemed fine. They basically prescribed me imatrex a year ago for the migraines when this started, told me to lose 15 pounds (I'm not even very big), and gave me nausea meds for the vertigo. They left it at that. I worry something's actually wrong and these things are related but they all think I am crazy.

they do. Wednesday I had to run to my car to grab my Excedrin in the middle of work and ended up having to call my husband to come get me and my son and bring us home because my head hurt so bad and I couldn't stop puking. The vertigo makes me feel like smurf all the time. At this point I am used to it... So I just push through the day feely yucky. When my bp gets high it makes me light headed and tired. It makes work hard.

It sucks that some doctors don't listen. But you need to find one that will.
