4. Difficulty Breathing
Difficulty in breathing, like chest pain, is another sign of high blood pressure that should not be ignored or disregarded. This is one of the most severe signs and symptoms and can simply lead to death or stroke.
As your arteries and veins narrow and sometimes destroyed, a limit to the blood flow in your heart and lungs occur which causes you to breathe harder than normal. This serious condition is known as Pulmonary Hypertension and should be given immediate medical attention. If not treated right, it may cause the heart to weaken and eventually result in heart failure.
