What Causes Headache And Numbness In Fingers After Skipping BP Medication?
This morning I have a peppery taste in my mouth. I failed to take my blood pressure medicine for 4 days. High Blood Pressure. Yesterday while doing physical work I had a head splitting headache, numbness in my fingers, a period of heart palpitations when I had finished. It was then I realised I failed to take my medication. I laid down quietly and felt marginally better in an hour, however the headache was dreadfully intense overnight and I still have remnants of it. I have taken my BP medication now. i know by not taking your medication on a regular basis is bad for your condition and can be dangerous.

Hello dear Greetings
Regarding your experience with headache numbness and tingling sensations following skipping your blood pressure medications I will suggest you have developed a peripheral neuropathy following High blood pressure
In view of this please stick to your prescribed drug prescription and take tablet thiamine for the numbness
I hope this helps Regards
