High bp 66 year old mother
My mother had dry mouth problem at night. Even if she drinks water. So she checked with doctor her sugar is normal
But bp was 170. So doctor told whole night she dint sleep due to worrying. Might be due to that. Next day bp is 150 . Dry mouth better after taking medicine and home remedy.
Is this bp a problem??
My dad has cancer and my mom sometimes doesn't get sleep. Or thinks lot sometime. Is it because of that,??
She doesn't have history of high bp.
But her father, and two sons died of heart attack around 65 years old. Rest 5 sisters don't have any issue. Only one sister who is now 70 years old had heart blockage which was better after surgery.

1. CBC
2. Blood glucose F/PP

4. KFT
5. LFT
6. Lipid profile
7. Thyroid Function Test
8 Routine Urine and Microscopic

Family history of heart diseases is very important factor , so must consult one cardiologist also
