Question
Hello,

I was wondering if Fibromyalgia can cause high blood pressure or if there is a link between the two?

Thank you.

Answer
Hi Laura,
There's not a link between FM and high blood pressure that I am aware of.

The only connection that I could see would be stress that would make both worse.

Check out http://www.myalgia.com to see if they might have some more info.

God bless and take care!

Joy{;-]AWE!
Kathleen
