Morning y’all. Off to see the Doctor to check my blood pressure since we changed dosage. Nothing exciting. Have a good day.

Blood pressure is fine. Might tweak dosage since have felt faint a couple of times in the last few weeks. Also asked if he supported the use of ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine. He did not. Guess I shouldn’t be surprised.

If you don't mind, what meds does the doc have you on for BP?

Doc has me on 40mg of Lisinopril. Sometimes it makes me feel light headed.

Might ask for lower dosage then. Doctor also mentioned to me that I should drink more water to avoid the faintness.

The HCTZ part was the killer for me. Once doc removed it and went to straight Lisinopril I had no more dizzies.

Doc jsut upped my dosage from 20mg to 40mg because my BP was still too high. I drink lots of water, orange juice, maybe one can of coke a week, and maybe have a drink ever couple of weeks. It's really weird.

Lisinopril gave my FIL a wicked dry cough especially when they upped the dosage.
For me it actually raised my BP...
I dropped it and adjusted diet a bit to keep it to a just high level. I've always had a higher bp than normal. I was 20 they were trying put me on meds... It hasn't changed much since then.
Salt intake isn't my issue nor was adjusted either as I'm a salt aholic big time.

Is this like a short dry smokers cough?

Hmmm, I’m not on any meds for BP, I’ve been a 120/80 guy all my life. Last two doctor visits 140/90…. ? I’m concerned.

I’m in pretty good shape (185lbs 5’11”)eat well and exercise daily. Gotta admit to a new past time of drinking beer. I never drank my entire life, until I turned 50! Then boom….?

Idk why I always associated high BP with overweight? I know it’s not always a tell tale….?

Salt is my weakness like you, can’t get enough.
