Insane in the brain! Insane in the membrane!

I don’t know what’s happening to me. Lately I get easily annoyed by remarks or statements made by friends and also my husband. Little things could set me off. There is nothing wrong with my sex life because I have been getting “it”. My workload is okay. I’m glad my boss is not the micro-manage type of person. Seriously, even if I’m stressed at work it’s not caused by my boss but more like the work itself is stressful. Reviewing rules amendments and reading stacks of documents is enough to drive a person insane.

I went to the clinic because I have been having these awful headaches. Sometimes I have to take 2 panadols, twice a day to ease the pain. The doctor checked my blood pressure and she said it’s 150/100! That’s quite high right? Now I’m freaked out. Is my headache a stressed-related one or is it caused by my food intake? I just came back from Penang with my family. So it cannot be that I’m stressed out because I just got back from a holiday!

So what do I do now? Do a full medical check-up? Watch what I eat? Go on another holiday?

err, have you tested for pregnancy? The symptoms are the same!

The higher BP level in quite normal when one is sick, having stress.etc. So don't worry too much if your BP is otherwise normal.

My headaches (more precisely, in my case, these headaches are called migraine) are triggered by oily food, menstruations and lack of sleep.
If you have been having your headaches regularly, try to find common things in each episode that might trigger your headaches.
The high blood pressure might be the reason of your headaches as well. Try to control your blood pressure by exercising and controlling your salt intake.
I know how it feels to have severe headaches. Orang cakap, ala, sakit kepala je, but seriously, it's killing!

Babe, normal BP is 120/70. If yr BP has been constantly high, do consult a doctor. Hypertension can have lots of bad side effects - kidney problem, stroke... No kidding.
