blood pressure above 280
Has anyone experienced blood pressure of over 280 close to 300? Could you please share what you were feeling at the time, all your symptoms etc. It would be so helpful to get insight..thank you!
Hi. Mine was very high, which i ignored for a good while. It went up and I ended up in ICU for my sins. It hit 280/160. I had difficulty breathing, . particularly lying down. Headaches Foggy feeling in head and funny pulsing feeling in head and face. It caused heart failure, my ef was at 15%. im a 50 year old male, no previous history of heart probs. If its over 180; The rule is ER to get it down.
Hello valda ,yes I have but I was in the hospital and was not let go until it went back down to 140/80.I have hp and who ever has that reading should go to the hospital immediately .I had a friend who died cause she never went to see a doctor with a reading over 200.please take care of your self and your loved ones because no one else will.

I'm so happy you survived that!!
Hello,
These numbers are very, very high and in this case you should seek a medical help as soon as possible. I haven't experienced such a high blood pressure, however my grandmother has had around 200/140 and she was taken to the hospital immediately. According to her experience I can tell that such an increased blood pressure causes severe headache, dizziness, fatigue and the feeling of haze in your head.

I was very tired and took a nap today between 12-2:30. Woke up with a severe nosebleed. I took my blood pressure and it literally was 286 over I want to say 258 tell me what to do it's lowered now but I'm very scared
GO TO THE DOCTOR OR ER IMMEDIATELY
What's hate? I'm on bp medicine for hypertension for about 4 years. Was taken lisinopril for 3 years n bout year now taken losartan, my bp was 160ish over 95,and I had no symptoms but headaches and felt so tired during the day. Never exercise and all. My younger brother 4 year younger than me just last Sunday recently had a stroke his bp was 280/179 they said if he'd been little older 38/40 it probably would killed him. It's crazy!!!! Just little age difference.

Glad that your brother was ok. High pressure is nothing to play with. I also suffer from high pressure
