[|Human|] Hi I am a 48 year old female. I have been experience shortness of breath for last 2 days. Last night I was waking from shortness of breath. Today have been short of breath all day. I went to the doc straight after work. My blood pressure was 163/91. I usually have around 145/83. I am not tight in the chest, but feel slight numb on my left calf...as if I am wearing a tight sock there.
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. In my opinion, we should rule out hypertensive heart failure in your case. Your blood pressure is high and your symptoms like sudden onset breathlessness in night are commonly seen with heart failure. So better to consult cardiologist and get done 1. Blood pressure monitoring 2. ECG 3. 2d echo 4. Stress test. You may need diuretics and antihypertensive Chat Doctor.
