They had no idea why her heart rate was high, or her blood pressure was high. The paperwork from the ER said she came for rapid heart palpitations. She went in for high blood pressure. She did have a high heart rate as well. They gave her an IV medication and her blood pressure went to 137. They let her go and 10 hours later, her blood pressure was back up to 151 and 187. She is the one who prescribed medication to lower her blood pressure. She prescribed Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg. The doctor said to use it only if her blood pressure goes up to 150. They have her entire chart, and her concern is that her blood pressure drops. They did not want her to have it drop. The doctor said to make sure only take it if over 150.
