RESUMO
Aiming to describe daily living of hypertensive people after Arterial Hypertension (AH) diagnoses and to identify changes in their lives. The method of inquiry used was descriptive and qualitative using discursive method to figure out theme factors. The results showed different behaviors/reactions of being sick according to their daily living after discovering AH, that not always happened at the same time that the antihypertensive treatment began. Those differences seems to be associated with individual understanding of sickness itself and of impact in their lives. So, getting along with hypertension is to learn about the sickness and symptoms and also make the necessary changes.

This study aims to identify difficulties and facilities of the patients in following the treatment of the arterial hypertension; and, to verify differences that exist between those difficulties and facilities in two moments of the trajectory--in the ambulatorial treatment and in the hospital stay. For this quantitative, descriptive study, 34 patients with medical diagnosis of arterial hypertension or its complications were interviewed, being 17 registered in the ambulatorial unit and 17 hospitalized in the nephrology unit. The results of the study revealed that, in general, there were no differences among the difficulties and the facilities referred by the patients for the following of the treatment in the two studied moments. The difficulties and facilities pointed out by the patients refer to the financing of the treatment (medication purchase and expenses with transport); accessibility to the service (easiness in marking medical consultation and distance of the service of health); change of alimentary habit (hipossodic diet), and the importance of the family support in this trajectory.
