My grandma was feeling pain and took two pills of vicodin. Now her blood pressure is so high that she’s at risk of a stroke. She has a cruise tomorrow and doesn’t want to cancel. What can she do to lower her blood pressure and lessen the side effects of the vicodin?

My 71 yr old dad suffered bleeding stroke in 2002. I’m unsure of which blood press. med he was put on, and he was put on aspirin as well. At a family reunion yesterday, he confided to my sister that he just had a dizzy spell and has been getting them at home. My sister took his blood pressure, 136/115, and was immediately concerned. Dad divulged that he had stopped taking his blood pressure med and cancelled his last scheduled doc’s appt, in lieu of the self-medicating regimen my mother has him on with herbal and natural remedies. Mother is rather controlling–could she be in any legal trouble if Dad has a medical emergency or worse as a result of her natural and herbal remedies replacing doctor’s prescribed meds? My folks and sisters all live in the same area–the reunion took place 9 hrs away and I was already on the way home when this revelation took place.

I was researching pre-workout formulas and most of them contain nitric oxide. I’m curious to know if nitric oxide affects your heart in a negative way and increases your risk of heart attack, stroke, high blood pressure etc. If not, what are the long term negative side effects you will have from using a pre-workout formula?

ok so my daddy just had a heart surgery, and his heart is fine now, but his right eye, isnt, he cant see well with that eye, and it got worse in the 2 days, and he just went ot the eye doctor and they jsut came back and the eye doctor said that its an eye stroke(what is that, and is it possible?) and can it be cured? like if his blood pressure is normal and doesnt go high or something, cuz i just heard them talking about it and they said that its cuz of his blood pressure, so if he takes teh medicine for that will his eye get better?

I already take the drugs cozaar and clonidine. both drugs are not working. I’m afraid that I may have a stroke or a heart attack!

Aside from the obvious methods of eating right, exercises and lowering salt intake. Are there any natural herbs or remedies that can lower really high blood pressure quickly ? I’m talking really high as in 180 over 110.. Heart attack stroke kinda blood pressure. Thanks for your replies.. God bless you !

I couldn’t sleep last night. So I got up and took my blood pressure.
My doctor want’s me to record it at various times. I felt good.
Pressure 187/113. My wife thinks I woory too much about it and that makes it go higher. I understand it might but not that high.
She wants me to stop all my meds. and just pray the rosary. This will cure me. Ain’t going to do it. Now to the question I have a very stressful life, take pills for that too, would stress make it that high ? My dr. said there’s a good chance I will have a stroke pretty soon or if I’m lucky just a heart attack.

well i have pcos i have the acne and hair on my chin my period is not to irregular just comes a few days late or early every month, not to bad. But the doctor wants to give me birth control pills now i have taken those before and they worked well, but now that my insurance will only let me get generics and they do not seem to work the same. Now i have heard about the benefits of taking the pill but i have also been hearing that htey can cause heart problems and strokes my father died of heart problems and also had a stroke and high blood pressure, my blood pressure only goes high occasionaly it is not high all the time. So my question is do i take the birth control pills and the meds for high blood pressure even though i hate medicine and prefer naturla cures. Also let me say that my blood pressure has been really good for the past 4 months and i have been off the meds. i got one higher reading and they want me back on meds. ok thanks for any tips and info you can give me, ALSo i have heard that garlic pills is good for blood pressure is that true guess i should also mention i am overweight and it is very hard for me to lose weight

I heard that high blood pressure can be controlled, but it could never be cured. I have high blood pressure, so does this mean that I’m always gonna live with possible health problems?? Oh, and I heard that high blood pressure can cause a stroke, heart failure, heart attack, and kidney failure. If you have high blood pressure, is it 100% for sure that you’ll end up having health problems?? Or does high blood pressure only put you at risk for health problems??

My father-in-law has ancestral high blood pressure. Also his heart is not healthy, so sometimes it affects the blood pressure to get higher either. Now when something happens or if his blood pressure gets higher he has to take really powerful medicine, which is not good for his other bodies. Even sometimes when his blood pressure gets higher he gets really close to the stroke. I could feel that. So my question is "Is it possible to cure ancestral high blood pressure, also high blood pressure that caused by heart abnormality?"

What is the best blood pressure medication with the least side effects ? I have tried Linsinopril, Diovan (valsartan),
Atenolol, Altace. They all bring my blood pressure down some, except for Diovan. It doesnt. The rest have similar side effects. Dizziness, incoherent, lack of energy.
Thank you for your response. I am at risk of a stroke each day.

My mother just had a stroke, and she is a diabetic, the stroke was caused from high blood pressure/cholesterol….now she’s home and has already asked to speak with a dietician but is unable to get in for a week, where can i find a list of foods that she should avoid, and foods that she can eat?? any good websites for this particular diet?
