What is the difference between high and low blood pressure and high and low blood sugar?
I'm asking bc right now I'm feeling shaky, light headed.... I just don't feel right, it's hard to explain what I'm feeli.
I remember before someone told this is probably high (or low) blood pressure... or maybe they said blood sugar.... I can't remember now.
I'm really not feeling well and am wondering if there is something I can do to fix this feeling.
It is unlikely that you are experiencing high blood pressure or hypertension because most people experience headache, nausea, or visual disturbances. Hypertension is a condition in which a person has a reading of 140/100 mm Hg on a regular basis.
It is more likely that you have low blood pressure or hypotension. Dizziness or lightheadedness are common symptoms are not to be taken lightly as they could be a sign of pregnancy, hormone problems, or over exhaustion. Sudden drops in blood pressure can be life threatening as they can be caused by blood loss, dehydration, infection, or a reaction to a medication. If you're lightneadedness persists, seek immediate medical attention.
Shaking and light headedness can also be associated with high or low blood sugar. Hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) and hypoglycemia (low blood pressure) can be a condition leading to diabetes.
I would try to drink something with a little bit of sugar like Gatorade and eat some carbs like a sandwich and see how you feel. Also, try to get some rest. If you don't experience any change, go see your doctor or the emergency room to be safe. You could just be tired, hungry, or dehydrated, but these are symptoms of serious conditions, and what you don't know could affect your health.
