Heart and Lung Problems Can Change How You Live
You may feel tired, short of breath, dizzy, or unable to do as much as you once could. Some conditions, such as high blood pressure, may not cause clear symptoms at all.
It can be hard to know if a change is serious or where to start.
Getting checked can help you understand what is happening and take the right next step.
Conditions We Help Manage
High Blood Pressure
High blood pressure means the force of blood moving through your body stays too high.
Many people do not feel different when their blood pressure is high. Regular checks are important because high blood pressure can affect your heart, brain, kidneys, and blood vessels over time.
CDP Health can help you:
- Check and track your blood pressure
- Understand your numbers
- Talk about habits that affect blood pressure
- Manage an ongoing health condition
- Connect with specialty care when needed

Signs of a heart problem may include:

- Swelling in the legs or feet
CDP Health offers heart testing that may include EKGs, Holter monitors, event monitors, and stress tests. Cardiology Outreach Visits are also available at the Sisseton Clinic.
