Are Elevation In BP Levels And Profuse Sweating A Cause For Concern?
My blood pressure has been bouncing around lately. It is currently 189/93. and has been as bad as 144/111. My left leg has been swelled for the last year. I do not seem to have any energy and short walks have me sweating bad. Im 5 11 350. I know im overweight. Im under doctors care. should I be concerned it is something serious?

thanks for posting..... 189/93 is really a high bp and according to you it has been fluctuating on and off which shows that either your are not taking any antihypertensive or you are non compliant to it.... i would suggest you to have a complete checkup from your family physician so that he might suggest you some antihypertensive to prevent this uncontrolled bp as it ma cause many other problems...
