Question
Hello doctor,
3 years ago, the day my mother died, I stayed up 3 nights. I have symptoms when I lie down, I feel lightheaded (like being dizzy) for about 1 week. I used a blood pressure monitor and it gave me a result of 160 - 170/90 - 95, I returned to Ho Chi Minh City (when I went to the hospital to check, the doctor gave me a 24-hour holter but the results the doctor said was not very high.
From that time until now, sometimes I often have chest tightness (feeling like being pinched), sometimes I get cold and sweat all over my shirt (cold on my lips - I'm tired) because I was at work, so I couldn't measure my blood pressure.I sat for about 30 minutes - 60 minutes, then I felt hot again
So the doctor asked me if I sometimes feel chest tightness, if I'm tired, what's wrong with my case? I am a sign of high blood pressure or low blood pressure Thank you doctor
