I was diagnosed last January with HF, after the last tweek on my meds, my blood pressure is a little bit elevated, is that normal?

When you have HF, do you also experience a little of chest pain? Or maybe like a quick spark like pain on your heart?

Thank you!

It was chest pain that led to my diagnosis of HF, with incipient pneumonia. A weak heart can lead to liquid collecting in the lungs. A diuretic caused an almost miraculous lack of pain in my case, but dealing with the HF took a couple of years of meds, plus a pacemaker.Whatever you do, don't ignore it.

Not what you're looking for?
