Should I Be Concerned About The Rise In Blood Pressure Up To 198/63?
My blood pressure went up to 198/83 last night and I didn't feel well. I took my evening meds and it went down to 184/63, Should I have called my doctor? I am 57 years old, 5'1", 250 lbs and have had HBP for approx 16 years. I was in the hospital last year when it reached 191 and I felt extremely sick.
