[|Human|] I have a congested feeling in my upper chest and it has coincided with a BP increase (currently at 153/95 - normally sits at around 135/80)  Should I be concerned?  I am Type 2 Diabetic (diet controlled) Female aged 53 but fairly fit and undertaking strenuous exercise on a regular (5 times a week) basis.  I am not short of breath and was able to do a fast cycling training session yesterday.
[|AI|]  Thanks for asking your question I completely understand your question yes hypertension in a diabetic patient is surely a matter if concern and medications should be started to control the blood pressure. Congestion can be due to a variety of reasons like cardiac - failure, or lung related like lower resp tract infection you need to visit a cardiologist and a pulmonologist to evaluate the causes by having one investigations done like chest X-ray, thanks / regards feel free to ask more questions may god bless you with good health
