About 2 months ago I noticed my left arm to my shoulder is paining me, I thought maybe I slept on it while sleeping but since then I've been experiencing d pain in d left arm.

5 days ago I've been experiencing. Chest pain and tight chest and this make me scared.

I went to check my BP. I checked it thrice. The first one was 145/86
2nd was 148/86
3rd was 148/81.

Pls medical practitioner in d house pls help me interpret this and tell me what to do pls.

I'm just 29 and a half years old

This is not a Nairaland or BP issue. I don't mean to scare you but you need to see a medical practitioner for proper diagnosis.

You may need to meet the same person who ran the test to translate.

Go to a hospital facility. They may have to investigate more by doing blood work to see how well your organs are functioning and what are the necessary steps and medication to ensure everything goes back to normal.

Your BP is indeed high both the diastolic and systolic.

148/86 is is a grade 2 hypertension

Pls,do not do anything hard to avoid sudden fall.

At that age,it is very high.
Avoid any kind of work now and sleep and stop the thinking. Stop the alcohol of any kind,rather exercise more,drink alot of water and fruits if possible and sleep and sleep more.

If u see this aboki people selling Dates another local name for it is Debino,pls buy and start chewing to help your heart.

Good luck.

For the past three months,I had been very sick,I went to maitama District hospital and ran series of tests upon test. They found nothing.

Did u know my BP was very high,my Christmas was not a good one honestly,but now it has returned to normal after someone advised me to chew this miracle fruits from the sahel.
In my case,I was about dying one night as my chest was pounding and aching me badly that I was just shouting...the next day I went to my office clinic until I was told that BP was very high.

I remembered when my left arm ached me for three weeks non stop. Back pain and non stop headache for three months.

Truly,BP is a silent killer.

Pls,work on yourself ok,u will be fine soon.

The main cause of your blood pressure being high, is lack of discipline in diet and stress.

Thanks, whats d fruit name?

Relax, My blood pressure was 170/96 when I landed Canada from Nigeria.
I had been working in Lagos(Island) and living on the mainland, the stress was just too much.
And that is why many people in NIgeria especially Lagos do not live long.

Within 1 year, my blood pressure came back to normal.
What did I do ?

I lost weight (Lost about 20kg)
I watched my salt intake.
I had a simple job that did not involve stress.

What are you weighing ? A lot of Nigerians are poor with diet and eat a lot of junk with alcohol and are over weight, all these puts pressure on your heart.

From you monicker, seems you are over weight, trying to loose weight and be disciplined in your diet. Within 1 year your blood pressure will normalise.

Just listen to yourself ? How can date reduce blood pressure ?
Instead of you to advise OP to loose weight, reduce stress, excercise regularly, avoid alcohol and live healthy.

Typical Nigerian, always looking for shortcuts .

If you eat a bucket of date and you dont live right, you will just kill yourself with haemorrhoids and pile...
Rubbishhhhh

I doubt if u are normal.
If u had read what I posted earlier,i don't think u will ever open your gutter mouth to talk rubbish. Is it just obesity that causes BP?

What effect does dates have on Blood pressure apart from pile and haemorroids ?
Typical Nigerian youth looking for short cut ?

When a man is overweight, and is stressed, and has high BP, that is the root cause, eating bucket of dates will not reduce blood pressure for an obesse person

Stop talking rubbish.
I mentioned his "heart" and I am sure of what I am saying Mr fault finder. See u that is a typical American.
When they say read and understand,una go just dey busy dey look for bad English or one thing to bring someone down.
Do ur research and stop doubting like a fool. Must u comment if u are not comfortable with what I relayed to him.?
Just be careful.

How does date reduce blood pressure ?
You are yet to provide an answer to that question.

Again, the OP is overweight and stressed, instead of eating dates, he should reduce his weight, excercise and avoid alcohol. Simples

The problem with u is that u think BP is for over weight people alone. U are local to learn above your level. I just had BP yet I am not even fat nor over weight.
Why can't u read all this up before arguing blindly.
Characters like u are the reason many of u don't do well in life.

Because u are suffering from myopia that is why u can't see my earlier posts

I'm not obese.....i weighed 86kg and I'm a little tall.

Pls what are food advised to be eaten to lower d blood pressure.....Im confused

Visit a clinic and see a physician. Nairaland and net is not a place to get what you need. It will only make you get more confused.

Change your matrass or foam if they are two soft and deeps you in the middle while sleeping

The other way to be sure of my advice is for you to sleep on the floor for the next two weeks with a mat let's see if the difference is clear

Ok boss. But do you just eat as many as possible or there's a certain number of dates you take per day.
