[|Human|] Hello, my name is Kylie.  I have had a Blood pressure check a few weeks ago and it was 146/95 the highest reading was 143/110 and it was monitered over a 4 week period by my doctor, the last check was 142/88. im 36 non smoker, non drinker and im not overwieght. i have to have some blood tests done and to check my renal arteries for maybe a blockage, but other than that i dont feel unwell at all, always have had lots of energy and do not have any other health problems, my blood pressure was last checked 1 year before and was 120/80. any suggestions what could possibly cause it to be high??
[|AI|]  HiT hanks for query. Looking at your complaints my opinion is as follows.1. Causes of High blood pressure is multifactorial. Apart from the parameters you mentioned, there are other factors too like stress, lifestyle, type of personality, exercise and workout, nutrition, history of hypertension/diabetes in family, history of myocardial infarction in family, hypercholesterolemia which contribute to pressures. 2. Keep a checklist on the factors I have mentioned and if your answer is yes to any or few of those then chances of developing hypertension and complications arising out of hypertension is more.3. Get a lipid profile tested to rule out high cholesterol as possible cause.4. If your BP reading is consistently high on multiple occasions then it's better to start on antihypertensives, and make necessary lifestyle modifications. Hope this helps. Any questions happy to help again
