I have a preasure of 90+. The lung doctor says it’s heart related &!the PH specialist says it may be a medicine I’m on. Waiting for results of blood work, & will probly be having a R & L heart Catherazation. The heart doctor just did another Echo…..go back in a week for results. I feel alittle rough….i was just contributing it to A Fib. We’ll see….I am hopeing it is something as simple as a medication change 🙏🏻

Update to above post…..preasure remains elevated but not high like the first reading. PH doctor has placed me on a extra fluid pill per day & told me to continue looseing weight. Preasure being monitored. One blood work did come back that my heart is working hard….so just takeing it one day at a time 😃. Good luck to you
