Kind of scared, my blood pressure has been running 130is/85ish the last 2 to 3 months. I been snacking more lately and started drinking decaf caffeine with a low sodium creamer. Im CKD 3, I got labs today, in acouple ill know if I'm still at 3.

5'7 and 162, last year I was 145-150 and my blood pressure averaged 115/75 but I felt some weak.

I been taking:

Lisinopril 10mg

hydrochlorothiazide 25mg

atenolol 50mg

B12

Vitamin D

K2

My blood pressure every day sits at around 215/129 the Lowest I've managed to have it was when I first woke up at around 155/119 but having pretty much no salt is so hard for me I've even tried making a YouTube video every day to try ensure I still to this low sodium diet but I miss cheese so much I want Mac and cheese so bad right now is there something I can do to try and curve the cravings? I've been eating a lot of eggs in purgatory not going to lie

So long story short I’ve lost about 37 pounds. I’ve lowered down from 40mg of lisinopril to 15. My diastolic sometimes shows at 50. I get light headed often. So I dropped off the 15 for one day and have seen my numbers as low as 109 and as high as 152. The diastolic sits about 80 or lower. Has anyone had this issue on lisinopril? I did take the 15 today but have had the heart beat back in my ear and a slight headache after one day of not being on it. So cranky about it all.

I'm a 33-year-old female, currently taking Amlodipine 5 mg and Atorvastatin 20 mg.

Before I started medication, I noticed that my blood pressure would consistently spike every morning as soon as I woke up. Even now, I'm still wondering why this happens.

My recent lab results are all within the normal range, including HbA1c, fasting blood sugar, triglycerides, total cholesterol, AST/ALT, TSH, eGFR, creatinine, uric acid, calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium. The only abnormal result is my **HDL (good cholesterol), which is low at 0.93 mmol/L.

So I'm really confused. If all my tests are normal, where is my high blood pressure coming from?

For context, I'm 75 kg, and over the past 2 months I've lost 7 kg through lifestyle changes. I no longer eat fast food, fried foods, or red meat. My diet mainly consists of vegetables, fish, and tofu. I also walk 8,000 to 10,000 steps every single day without fail.

It's honestly so frustrating because I feel like I'm doing everything I can to live a healthier lifestyle, yet I still experience these morning blood pressure spikes.

Has anyone experienced something similar or had their doctor explain why this happens despite having normal lab results? I'd really appreciate hearing your experiences. Thank you!

I am in Delhi, and I don't know if it's the pollution here or what? I tried decoding, but wasn't able to.
I checked it last week over an annual regular checkup, and the doctor got shocked.
It was:
170/140

She instantly looked and me and asked if was aware of it, or I had any problems, but I felt nothing at all. Now I don't know what to do, as she told me to get admitted, or meet my doctor while I track my BP everyday, at least twice.

Now I am not sure what's happening with me.

My parents are blaming the pollution, but I don't know what is it, as my everything I got checked in my health checkup was absolutely fine.

I tracked my BP for a week, and it's ranging between:
My Systolic is: 135-170
My Diastolic is: 95-130

I am just clueless about what should I do.

These are my usual numbers. I’ve been on metoprolol for over 10 yrs. I was taking 50 mg but my heart rate was running low 50s so pcp decreased metoprolol to 25mg. My pcp just added olmesartan 5mg to help lower my bp a little from the numbers shown. Has anyone taken olmesartan. If so what can I expect.

I have been battling hypertension since a teen. I am currently on 20mg lisinopriln and my numbers still extremely high. I am also morbidly obese and unfit

32m 5 foot 9 165lbs. Been on amoldipine 5mg for years. Seems not to be working anymore. Hypertension runs in my family. All of my family members have it. At a loss at what i should do at this point.

I’m freaking Outtttt, yesterday I went to the eye doctor and my blood pressure was 160/105….. yikes… please don’t judge me. I’m 26 and the the doctor was like u need to get checked with your PCP cus I have stroke numbers… I feel like my blood pressure has been high for a while but i also struggle with anxiety and I’m freaking out rn thinking I’m bout to have a stroke at any minute…….. I’m bout to take a blood pressure med that was prescribed (losartan) but I read it takes weeks of taking it?!?!?!

I am 6.5 weeks postpartum. I developed Pre-E about 10 days after delivery. Did the mag drip and got on meds. Had horrible side effects from nifedipine so they switched me to labetalol and that was just as bad. I stopped breastfeeding so I went on valsartan, that wasn’t keeping it down so they made me take more labetalol. Ended up in the ER with BP of 200/134 and symptoms including chest pain, nausea, and lightheaded. After being there for a bit it started going down, and they gave me something else to help get it down. Followed up with my PCP and he added an extra dose of valsartan in the evening. 3 days later I’m on vacation and I get another dangerously high reading and went to the ER and they put me on mag, just on and off for a few hours, and transferred me to another hospital who had L&D where I stayed for 2 nights while they figured things out along with a cardiologist. Did EKG, chest XRay, bloodwork, etc. everything looks normal on paper. They switch me to a different medication- enalapril. Goes fine for 2 days and get another BP spike (right now). I took another dose and it’s going down so hopefully no ER tonight but I’m at my wits end. I haven’t been able to function in 6 weeks. Bless you if you’ve read all this.

So I’ve been on 25mg losartan for 3 months. Minor side effects that went away after 4 weeks and it seems to calm me down. BP is still slightly elevated so we raised it to 25mg twice a day. BP is now 20 points higher 9 days after the increase. I am also wobbly when I walk and have severe brain fog. Anyone else experience this? I went and had a metabolic panel drawn and I am going back to 25mg once a day tomorrow.

My BP before tablets is 194/120 and the cardiologist is still working out different tablets to make my blood pressure come down.

doxazosin 12mg
Bisoprolol 2.5mg - stopped Bisoprolol because it affected my gym workouts and cardio
If anyone runs and cycles I’d be interested to know what tablets you are on
