Suggest Remedy For Swollen Feet And Ankles With Fatigue And High BP
Lately I have been getting swollen feet and ankles. I am always tired and my blood pressure was high when I visited the Dr.'s yesterday. The top number was 162. I don't remember the bottom number. I have had a few fainting spells for no reason that I can think of. I have never had swollen feet or ankles before. I also have sore feet in the morning when I first get up, the bottoms of my feet hurt. Any ideas?

Welcome to HCm.
I understand your concern.
as per your complains of swollen ankles and increased tiredness coupled with fainting spells cardiac cause(Congestive Cardiac failure) is the most probable diagnosis at this time,but a further clinical and lab investigation would be needed to confirm the diagnosis.
I don't want to frighten you up but just want to convey that you should probably do some cardiac evaluation like 2 D ECHO and follow up withh either a cardilogist or general physician.
Take care.
