What Causes Body Tremors, Fainting And High BP?
Question: My husband has had a couple of episodes of severe whole body shaking. Initially, he's freezing, but that passes, but the shaking continues for 30-45min. His BP is 200/100 currently.
He has had a rt. cerebellar stroke in the last 18 months.
Should we be concerned enough to see a doctor immediately, or just mention it the next time he goes in for an app't? He just had a f/u visit with his neurosurgeon for a Schwannoma in the right side......which is unchanged from 2 yrs. ago.

Brief Answer:
Visit a physician immediately
Detailed Answer:
Hello Mam,
Welcome to healthcaremagic.
After reading the condition of your husband, I feel you should immediately see your nearest physician. This is because he already had an episode of stroke and now also his blood pressure is not under control.
First and the most important thing is to control his blood pressure,or else he is at risk of stroke again.If he is already on some anti hypertensive medication,i feel the dosage is not sufficient enough to control his BP.
So, yes you should be concerned and see a doctor immediately.
Hope i have answered your query.Feel free to ask more.
In case,you have no further clarifications,please rate this answer and close this discussion.Thank You!
