high blood pressure

[pncwils]

my gp measured my bp and it is 163/104 he gave me a home kit to test for one week, l went with a toe fracture over 10 weeks that is still causing pain, he wants me to measure bp at hoem for a week and go back, l also have extreme fatigue, stiffness on getting up at back of legs above ankle and aching arms andshoulders, l also get breathless, l just dont feel right, could this be part of my menopause or something more serious, l take nsaids for anklyosing spondlutis but have not felt right5 for severa months.  in may l had a kidney ultrasound but all was clear, what couold this be.  l cannot stop yawning!  l am female 48

thank you

are you taking a BP medication of the kind called an ACE inhibitor? That can cause a sore throat.

GP has not done blood testing had many blood rtests in May for the anklyosing spondilities but he is not bothered with that, he is more interested in the blood pressure readings, tody all l do is sleep and throat is so achy

Has your GP taken blood for testing? The menopause can cause fatigue and depression along with a whole array of issues. Blood testing can be done for your hormones and
cholesterol, sugar etc.
