BP is no laughing matter and is serious. My brother who is 64, found himself on the ground with gash on his head. He had passed out and did not know it. When he called me, I asked if he had either low or high BP. When to the doc and he had high BP. When on meds that day.
I've been on BP meds for 15 or 20 years. Most of it due to having a stressful job. It's a lot better now since I've been retired now for over a year. |

That is ridiculous. A med that was working and “insurance” won’t cover it. Can your dr contact insurance company? Does drug manufacturer have an assistance program or some type of discount if you pay out of pocket?

All about the Benjamin's... Can't think of anyone I know who doesn't have this problem.. But ED pills are covered and getting sex change probably covered.

Anyway, I am cancelling my reservations at the beach for July 4th. Just don't think I'm going to be able to make it and don't want to risk anything whether I'm cleared to go or not because I know I'll end up with new meds or an adjustment to get used to. |

Carvedilol did almost nothing for me, but now I'm on a great combination:
Labetalol 2x per day and Losartan and HCTZ combination pill 1x. My new numbers are pretty consistent around 125/78 or so. HTH, Paul |

Well, I'm home. BP is down to 150/100.
The good news is they didn't have to put me down like a lame horse. The bad news is I'm not being put out to pasture to be studded out. |
