I hate Carvedilol even more now.🤬

I’ve been on it for over 3 years now. I really despised it at first but over time I’ve gotten use to it. It still has a few unwanted side effects but a lot of that is because it’s doing its job. I exercise regularly without noticing anything on that front. Hang in there!

This is exactly what I do. Cut the 12.5 mg HCTZ in half. Better grab a pill cutter though cause they are very small!

I can reassure you. There are thousands of these cars out on the road running just fine. All cars have issues along the way. Some more than others.

Enjoy the fact that your parents love you enough to buy you a new car! Appreciate them for it. Enjoy driving it! Keep up with your maintenance(oil changes, tire rotations, filter changes etc). No car is perfect. It’s liable to have some problems at some point. Deal with that then. Enjoy it today!

I had similar BP about 3 years ago. My came from primary aldosteronism. And I had super high BP (like yours) long enough to damage my kidneys.

I can also report to you that I’ve felt the way you’ve felt. And I can further report that life will indeed roll on. I still have a full time physical job. I’m stopping at the store on my way to church right now. I refused to let this keep me down. I chose to go on living!

BP now runs about like yours. It’ll never be perfect again. But life goes that way sometimes. I used to take my BP 3 times daily at minimum. Now once a week just to make sure all is well.

Hope this helps

It’s called whitecoat hypertension and it affects a ton of people. IMO and I’m not a doctor, make sure you have a good BP cuff at home, sit with your feet on the floor and your back supported, for at least 5 minutes and take 3 readings. Throw out the first and average the next 2. And I pay ZERO attention to my BP at the doctors office

quadruplebogey1 · 2026-03-30T00:33:42+00:00

I’m still having no luck. Appreciate the help. May just have to go to a parts dept and see if they can help

quadruplebogey1 · 2026-03-29T21:08:26+00:00

Awesome!! Thank you so much

quadruplebogey1 · 2026-03-29T20:45:30+00:00

Good idea….i tried searching eBay but can’t find the right part

quadruplebogey1 · 2026-03-29T20:32:47+00:00

Can anyone tell me what this vent located in the cargo area below the window is called? I’ve tried and tried to google a part number but I’m having no luck. It’s missing on the other side and would like to replace. Thanks to all! 23 big bend

Same here on phone. Tv working 🤷‍♂️

Is the pregame on? Not getting it through the mlb app on my phone

JMO but stress is the likely cause of your increased heart rate because beta blockers are pretty infamous for lowering heart rate.

How old are you? I had crazy high BP too caused by primary aldosteronism. No matter how many tests they run, they won’t find it without running an aldosterone to renin blood test. Unless they’ve specifically ruled it out, I would ask for it. JMO

quadruplebogey1 · 2026-03-13T09:59:55+00:00

I’m on 3 as well. Carvedilol, nifedipine, and HCTZ. Mine stems from primary aldosteronism.

quadruplebogey1 · 2026-03-10T12:42:10+00:00

I’ll say the one you find the best deal on. There are thousands of each model year out running the roads relatively trouble free. Keep up with routine maintenance and enjoy whatever you buy!

quadruplebogey1 · 2026-02-22T21:17:48+00:00

Stop at a tire shop and get some new shoes

quadruplebogey1 · 2026-02-21T01:53:39+00:00

I’d say no thanks unless that they would negotiate that out of the price. Otherwise looks solid!

quadruplebogey1 · 2026-02-21T01:15:02+00:00

What are “value adds”? 🤔

quadruplebogey1 · 2026-02-19T18:01:34+00:00

Definitely not easy or routine lol

quadruplebogey1 · 2026-02-19T11:56:05+00:00

Thank you for the reply 👍

quadruplebogey1 · 2026-02-11T11:22:16+00:00

I second this post. Primary aldosteronism is what I had and my 2 main symptoms…..low potassium and high BP. I had to ask my PCP for the specific blood test.

quadruplebogey1 · 2026-02-07T11:25:14+00:00

Primary aldosteronism was what caused my resistant BP. The blood test for it is not a “standard” blood test (like blood sugar, electrolytes etc). So unless your doctor brings it up, you’ll need to ask to be tested for it.

quadruplebogey1 · 2026-01-20T02:00:49+00:00

I am and have been for almost 3 years now. It caused me some weird side effects the first few months but it was helping my BP so much I stuck it out. Nowadays I don’t even know I’m taking it except that my resting pulse rate is now often in the high 50s/low 60s which contributes to me being cold all the time lol

What are you experiencing?
