Ok you're the lucky one...I mean to not experience hypertension without eating anything wrong like I do...
Today, I up to 40mg again, 20 at 8AM, 10mg at 12PM and 10mg at 3PM...
I experience high blood pressure since noon I think, but never go more up than 160/95 until now...That's more high than my usual range of normal BP, but that's not what we can call an hypertensive crisis no?
I try to figure out what I do wrong. Today I don't drink coffee...I wanted to see the difference...but I see no difference at all...The Valium seem to not be the problem like I was saying last week, I eat just fresh food, no leftover in the fridge...I don't eat eggs or chocolate or things like that...nothing on the list of food to avoid in fact, as usual...but it seem that my BP is high, enough high to feel my heart racing right now...but if I change my minds that's ok...I don't feel it racing...but I still know it's high cause I have this strange sensation of "freezing" all over my body...
I wanted to return to 30mg yesterday...but what it will give to do a step back now?... I will see, in one week I see my family doc, I write all my blood pressure test on a paper, all the side effects I have or experience, he will look at them and see if it's dangerous or not...I don't think a week at 160/90 will kill me...that's not good, but that's ok...Some people do high BP since a lot of years without being advise of it...That's not for nothing they call these disease "The silent disease"...
I know what I do for now...I just didn't want to experience another "hypotension crisis" like I had 2 nights ago...it was terrible...I still get some orthostatic hypotension, even with a high blood pressure that I find suspicious and weird...normally hypotension go with itrhostatic hypotension, not high BP...But I continu to take my Florinef before bedtime...so 0.1mg of Florinef, salt, water and up to the bed...it work well last night so I hope it will be the same for tonight...
I really think my body have to take some time to adjust to the stimulant effect of the Parnate...with time, the high BP will fade away.
Well, next time, no more Nifepidine if i'm going above 205 in the blood pressure....emergency directly...
So that's all for now...I'm ok..that's the important... So thanks another time for your help !!! That's really welcome ;-)
Have a nice evening! ;-)
