sudden onset of high blood pressure and anxiety



Recommended Posts

I am one week post op from having the sleeve 3 days after surgery my blood pressure spiked and I can not really get it under control and have been seeing my local dr. yesterday I had an extreme anxiety attack and ended up in the hospital they said I was hydrated and had no blood clots and actually even said my stomach looked great on the ct scan however I had neither of these issues before surgery. My bp was borderline hypertension but nothing like it is right now I have been walking and doing whatever I can to try to make this better. I am still on the meds from the hospital that they give and just wondering if anyone else has had this and did it go away.

EDIT: sorry, I misread your first post as the hospital found you DEHYDRATED

How much Water are you getting in? If the hospital found you were dehydrated then that may be the trigger for the high blood pressure? Start logging your volume of water with something like MyFitnessPal and work at it the whole day long ,(are you still on all fluids? If so you don't need to have non drinking periods before and after meals like will happen soon). The main postings I've seen of (non surgical) health issues in the first 2 weeks after surgery were people who weren't able to get enough water in.
