What is the danger zone for BP and tachycardia with hyperthyroidism?!
Question:
I was diagnosed over a year ago with hyperthyroidism. I do not know exactly what form, the endo say thyroiditis but that only lasts 3 months and I have not nor will I go back to that quack. There's only one other endo my insurance will pay for and it takes 8 months to get a first appointment. I have to pay for ER services if it isn't an emergancy and all I have is a family doctor and this isn't her field, that's the reason for specialists.
My blood pressure has been off, systolic is low, diastolic is high.. my resting heart rate is never lower then 120 and my body temp has went up from my normal of 96.7 to never less then 99.5 . I have never had blood pressure problems before my thyroid started messing up.
I don't want to go the emergancy room but I will if I need to. I do not want to go into a thryoid storm but I can't find any information about how high is too high concerning Blood Pressure and resting heart rate. Any info is greatly appreciated.
