Can abnormal Blood Pressure cause vomiting and lost diet?
Patient: Is BP reading of 143/63 normal,This is of my mother's who is 57yrs old and has diabetis and hyperthyroid and BP too.From last three days she is not feeling like having food and has vomiting once/twice a day.the last 2 days the BP reading were normal But today morning it was found 143/60 when tested at home. Doctor: Hello , Very high blood pressure can cause vomiting , However  the blood pressure reading you have mentioned w should not cause vomiting .  The 2 most probable reasons are . Diabetes related .  Keto acidosis . If the diabetes is very high or rather if it's staying in control but continuous vomiting with no intake of food and decreased water . Just check ketone in her urine . A strip is available at all medical stores . A bad stomach . If there is history of food at an outside joint , abdominal cramps and some change in stool consistency . I would pursue that you visit you family doctor as it's already 3 days . Regards Dr Priyank Mody
