How Can Elevated Blood Pressure And Stress Be Treated?
My daughter s blood pressure was 149/104 yesterday. I moved to another province recently and I figure it out stress on her. We are very close. She also started a new job in the same time. What can I do to help her? Is the blood pressure dangerous? Should she see a doctor asap? Thank you.
