Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Is This Blood Pressure With Headache High Enough To Have A Stroke?
When I take my blood pressure in the early morning hours (example 4:00 am) and have a slight headache and my blood pressure is in many cases around 154 77. Should I be concerned this is high enough to have a stroke? I don't have a doctors appointment to address this issue until June 2010.
Usually blood pressure of 154/77 don't cause a stroke. But still it is high and can cause complications over time. So I would advise you to see your doctor and doctor and discuss your treatment.
Regards,
