iHateFraudsters:
Beta blocker is the only good option.

Yes i agree.

The commonest cause of HTN in the young is an overdrive of the sympathetic nervous system.

A selective B2 antagonist may help.

But hey, i am not a cardiologist, so make we leave the experts to do their job

DICO111:
Greetings to you all.
Since birth till date (I'm 31) I have never fallen sick to a point were a test is recommended, so I have never had a medical test all my life.
Sometimes when I feel feverish or down in anyway I usually buy malaria and typhoid medicines and that usually work for me.
But some time in 2018,( I was 27 then) I was informed by my uncle's wife that she was going to do a free medical outreach in our village as her own way of helping people( she's a nurse in U.S) and she told me she would like me to be present to help organize and sort out things to make the work easy for medical professionals she invited to do their work.
Majority of the people that turned up were oldies so we had loads of work to do bring in chairs for the overwhelming turn up.... people's blood pressure and blood sugar were check and they also had eyes test and corrective lenses were given.
Now, after the whole exhausting exercise, my auntie as a fondly call her asked all of us that worked to also check our BP and blood sugar, which took turns and did as instructed.
My blood sugar was normal according to the nurse but my BP was something else, 105/156... she immediately called my auntie's attention to it and she opted to check me herself using another equipment, she did and it came as 110/160..... she told me it's really very high and considering my age shouldn't be.
Prior to that event I have never felt anything awkward or unusual, I play football and do almost all exercises a young guy will want to do... it's also pertinent to note that I do not smoke and even though i drink beer i dont exceed 2 bottle because i have "light brain" like they will always say.
She ("my auntie " asked the senior doctor present to exchange contacts with me so that at intervals of 1 or 2 weeks I will always go check my BP and see if it will reverse to normal.... I went to his private clinic twice and the results was always high so he, on the second occasion gave me a card of 10mg Amlodipine and Lisinopril 10mg too.
I took the whole card as direct and came back to the clinic this time the result was 100/138, he now asked me to always check it at any pharmacy store near me and always have the aforementioned medicines available.
The doc. asked me not to be taking it daily anymore but only when it's high (above 100/140), I have kept to this routine ever since...

Now my problem here is, in recent time I find myself feeling more week and dizzy and I dont even know how to describe the feelings
I become very worn out after 45 minutes football unlike me, I barely play now.

My auntie travelled back and seems to forgotten everything she promised, I call and no response and I hate pestering people.
I want a solution to this BP thing, I feel bad about it all the time and always ashamed to even mention it
I feel I'm gradually going downhill health wise....I need help and I need it urgently please...... I can't take anything more than this

Ok,

I think you need to review your drugs with a cardiologist.

Some of these drugs have adverse effects.

i actually expected the doctor to give you a beta blocker but that's his choice anyway

kumbhuru:
Are you dating or married to a nurse?

Lol, why did you ask?

Lovenorth:
If you are interested to be a slave forever go for Nursing, if you want to be a boss go for MBBS. If you don't have the intellectual and emotional ability to become a medical doctor then you can manage at least with Nursing but you would forever be under the control of a doctor

This is very untrue please.

Nursing is a totally different profession on its own.

Without nurses we doctors won't have patients in the ward, yes, NURSES OWN THE WARDS.

Abeg mae we stop all this rivalry abeg

no one noticed that AAAASSSSS

DrHesjay:
My bossss!!!!!!!

Longest time sir.
Omo, I can never forget you o. You were the first person who game me expose about medical school and all our discussions were relevant till the very end.

I remember the first was when I started 100level. You met me and my friend at Challenge. We stayed in your car and you spoke to us for almost 2 hours. He (my friend) later became CMDA president.

Then I came to meet you around airport when 200level started. Great times.

I have partially left clinical practice though, now work in a HMO.

DrHesjay:
Wow. Someone's comment today reminded me of all the long days here and the memories made from it. Life is indeed, in stages. Throwback to those days where this was the only available platform for we the younger ones to get motivated and inspired by the works of our big chiefs. Those days, we thought getting medicine admission was the end of our problems, but now, we know say problem no dey finish.

Bro how far na, lol, I remember when you came down to where I was doing PP in Ilorin for some tips... Till when you outshined everyone not only with brains but with politics too...

I'm so proud to have met you bro.

I'm sure you're not in the country again

Uzomacharles:

Flamemignon1:
Oh.... My bad. Most bloggers should be educated on writing articles like these. In a same sex relationship, they are both boyfriends or girlfriends if they are lesbians

Eheeeeeennnn?

Na wa ooo

Flamemignon1:
Where in the article did you see "girlfriend"? Anyway, the boy is obviously a golddiger like his previous young boyfriend, he likes them young. He changes these men like how room rich men changes women

you're a latecomer

Mr. explorers changed the topic and edited the article

what a cheat!!
