Suggest Treatment For High BP, Left Sided Headache And Arm Pain
I have left arm/should wrist pain and numbness. Headache on left side just came on but not severe. Should I do anything about it? I have high blood pressure, I am 60 years old. I work and wondered if maybe it s possibly because I slept on that side or if it s carpal tunnel syndrome from all the years of working on computers finally catching up to me? Or could it be I am slowly having a heart attack or Stroke? Or am I a hypochondriac? Family history of stroke and heart attacks. I have never had one. I have LVH with abnormal EKG.
