10 High Blood Pressure Symptoms
Symptom #5: Fatigue
While there are many conditions that can cause fatigue, it may also be a symptom of high blood pressure. Blood is the vehicle that supplies oxygen and nutrients to all organs and tissues in the body. These are the raw materials that produce the energy needed by the organs and tissues to perform their essential functions.
In cases of high blood pressure, the blood supply is hindered so that some organs and tissues are deprived of adequate amounts of oxygen and nutrients. Consequently, energy necessary for the performance of these parts of the body is not produced, which causes fatigue. In this state, you may be unable to effectively perform your daily activities. If you experience persistent fatigue, you need to have your blood pressure checked.
