can high blood pressure affect the spinal cord?
My father who is now 74 years old has uncontrolled blood pressure (he decided to not take his BP medication for a year). But last week it was 200 and now he is back on meds, but he has a hard time standing up or moving his legs in the beginning. So I'm wondering if that has to do with his high blood pressure? Could it have damaged his spinal cord? Thanks in advance.
