What Causes Fatigue And Excessive Sleepiness While On Treatment For High BP?
I m 58 years of age. Have never smoke or drink. take med. for high blood pressure, diabetes, spondylosis. Been feeling very tired lately. can easily sleepy 12 to 18 per day, most of the time I feel sluggishness or fatigued. the last few weeks I started noticing some lite chest pains. Should get in to my Dr. or wait until my next diabetes check up?
Feeling unusually fatigue might be to both low blood pressure and sugar levels. Monitor your blood pressure and sugar levels and record the results for reference.
What concerns me is the light pain you are experiencing on the chest.
To me, you should consult immediately with a cardiologist, do not wait for the next appointment with a diabetes doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Albana Sejdini,
