Is that a resting heart rate of 81? Unless you are pretty large that’s still to high.

I trust my cardiologist and Nephrologist then most of all the Dr.s I see on a regular basis. I would gt in with a recommended cardiologist just to rule out some things if nothing else.

This morning I’m 117/77 @ 73. Still no meds. I’ll call the doc tomorrow.

I’m not diabetic, I have no heart problems. I’ve been fighting my BP since I was 18. In that time, I have learned a lot about it. If I can cut out meds and my BP remains normal, where’s the harm?

I’m not going to the doc until the pandemic is over. I have an appointment for November 5. It’ll be over then.

Sorry if I missed it in the thread, but what’s the medication name?

Want to bet? $500 it won't be gone. If anything it will be more widespread. Come on Cast, put your money where your mouth is. 5 Benji's, you in?

Good question.

Valsartan HCT 320/25
Bisoprolol 5mg (1/2 tab)

I have been feeling weak and cruddy for weeks now. Bouts of dizzyness and exhaustion. Day before yesterday I woke up feeling really bad/weak. Yesterday morning I woke barely able to walk without blacking out. I went back to bed and checked my BP. It was 85/62 w heart at 101. Since then I decided to stop taking my BP Meds. It’s been 36 hours now and BP has slowly crept up and heart rate has gone down. This morning I feel pretty good and I’m looking at 101/65 &73. Still a little low.

Now I don’t know if this ever happens, but it may be that my lifestyle has changed for the better over the 3+ years that I’ve been retired to enable this, but I have shed enormous job related stress and crushing responsibilities by leaving a job I absolutely grew to hate.

I’ll be watching my BP closely now, at least until it stabilizes. No more meds would be great.

Y’all be aware of BP crashes. Symptoms for me included severe light headedness, nausea and vision anomalies. I saw black blobs, contrast flares, and tunnel vision. If you get these symptoms, you’re seconds from passing out.
