Inability to Sleep
More than fifty percent of people with high blood pressure experience obstructive sleep apnea, which is a condition characterized by loud snoring as a result of a relaxation of throat muscles. Lack of sufficient sleep is itself a cause of high blood pressure, and when it really sets in, it becomes so difficult to sleep, that some doctors have to prescribe sleeping drugs to patients; if high blood pressure is treated early enough, it should not affect your sleep. To avoid this kind of symptom, make sure you check your blood pressure regularly.[5]
