How To Treat High BP While Suffering From Pneumonia?
I have been having high blood pressures. It is currently 170/120. I am not on any blood pressure medications. This is a new problem. I just finished antibiotics for pneumonia a few days ago. They had discovered my high blood pressure when I went in to be checked for my pneumonia. I feel better, but don t think my pneumonia is gone. What should I do about my blood pressure tonight? Is it safe to wait until tomorrow to see a doctor?

hi,
some times fluctuation in blood pressure is common for most people. it might be even related to stress as well. I will personally feel if you do not have any symptoms and feeling better than try doing deep breathing exercise and little meditation. keep a tab on the blood pressure every day and see how this works. if late still the BP does not come down meet a physician and surely you will be helped. but I feel that doing deep breathing with meditation will surely help you and you will be satisfied as well.
