What Are These Symptoms?
(Newest replies first)

Updated

A friend of mine is 43 and she is a ciggarette smoker from hell. She drinks everyday. I am very worried about her. I don't think she cares about her self anymore. She told me for the past month she wakes up all hours of the night with a pressure in her face and front of her head. dizzyness to the point she closes her eyes for a minute and holds her head.. Is this possiblely high blood preasure or should I some how MAKE her go to the doctor.. She will not go.... Please any advice will be greatly appreciated..

Well since none of us here are doctors, and even if one of us was, we cannot diagnose over the internet with just a small description of symptoms, so really it would me remiss of any of us to try to guess and advise based on just what you have told us.

She needs to see a doctor, but if she doesn't want to, there is not much you can do about it, I know you care for her, but in reality it is her life and her decisions to make.

Heather,
I think that you should try and get her to go to a doctor, I have just started methadone, but that doesn't seem like that it is natural for her to be feeling like that. I do know that it takes a couple of days for the side affects to wear off, but then again she really should stop drinking with the drug. Please try and get her to go to the doctors, and tell her that she needs to stop drinking.
