What Cause Breathing Difficulty With Physical Exertion And High Blood Pressure?
I have been having a difficult time breathing when I go up the stairs,any physical excursion and feel as though the blood has been drained from my body.My blood pressure was 144/100 upon rising this morning.Could this possibly be heart problems.I took a lasix yesterday and lost three pounds within 4 hours.
The symptoms you are experiencing, may be related to Heart failure or ischemic heart disease. These are two serious cardiac problems that must be properly diagnosed and treated.
