Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Weakness In Leg And Rise In BP Levels?
I am feeling generally weak in my legs and my blood pressure has been a little elevated lately - normal is usually 120+ over 70 - lately has been over the past week 150/84, 151/91 and most recently 131/82 which was yesterday. I can t sleep - waking up every 2 to 3 hours.
Rise in BP and feeling weakness in leg are most unlikely to have a co-relation. Your BP levels are also not too high to worry about. With lifestyle modifications and reducing stress, your BP should come back to normal range. I need to understand why are you feeling pain/weakness in the legs. I need to know some details about you-- age, gender, blood sugar levels, weight, height, are you obese, is there any family history of hypertension. With this info, I can advice you better. Thanks
