However, that did not spoil the pleasure we had in each other's company; we did not gallop about as we once did, but we used to feed, and lie down together, and stand for hours under one of the shady lime-trees with our heads close to each other; and so we passed our time till the family returned from town.
High Blood Pressure Symptoms. Highlights. High blood pressure is generally a chronic condition and is often associated with few or no symptoms. When symptoms do occur, it is usually when blood pressure spikes suddenly and extremely enough to be considered a medical emergency. Rare symptoms include dizzy spells, headaches, and nosebleeds.
Many symptoms present gradually after years of poorly blood pressure control. Many times, the first knowledge of hypertension occurs when a patient complains of chest pain or has stroke-like symptoms. Should these occur, it is appropriate to call 911 immediately (if available) to activate emergency medical services and seek care.
