after ten minutes and it was 137/93.the sen day at about 8pm it was 122/80.on Thursday at about 1pm I took it and it was 144/92 I called my doctor and he asked me to see him,my doctor gave me BYSTOLIC 5 MG.

After the first pill my blood preasure was 118/77.I have not take any more pill

FYI  I TOOK LISINIPRIL FOR BP,MINE RAN LIKE YOURS  MODERATELY HIGH, IT IS A GREAT SAFE DRUG,JUST TAKE A HALF ONE 25 MG PILL,IT WILL GET YOUR NUMBERS WHERE THEY NEED TO BE. THIS PRODUCT IS AN ACE INHIBITER AND JUST DIALATES YUR ARTERIES.  GOOD LUCK

Gold Horse,

Try not to fixate on checking your blood pressure as that alone can cause you to feel anxious and your BP to be up.

If you have questions re medications please do check with your Dr. as we are not able to advice you on whether or not you need to change your meds etc.

I understand your concerns. Keep posting here with us and do let us know how you are feeling.  We are here to support you.

Kindly,

Kitt
