I'm a 45 year old female just diagnosed with severe hypertension and congestive heart failure. Since starting the medications and changing some of my lifestyle I'm noticing improvement. I do however have a couple of symptoms that I'm not sure are related and thought someone here could help me. I tend to start sweating suddenly, mostly around my face, chest, neck etc., it is uncontrollable, unpredictable and excessive. The other symptom is just as bizarre-I sometimes experience numbness and tingling in the tips of my fingers and toes. I noticed today when this occurred that my fingertips were extremely pale in comparison to the rest of my hand. This is just as unpredictable as the sweating.
Any wisdom for me, or are these signs completely unrelated? Thanks so much for any help!
