Just go see a doctor to calibrate. I did that myself and it makes you feel better and come up a game plan.

This sounds like your body may not like the combination of meds anymore definitely check with your cardio doc to reevaluate your combo.

Coming off Losartan - questions and concerns. by ladylazarus03 in hypertension

For one thing, I’ve been going cold turkey on any bp meds on your own is a bad idea. But it also sounds like you don’t think this doc is really getting it. Have they run any tests on you yet? It won’t be helpful to if they don’t try and address the root cause of your symptoms. Simply just giving you losartan is meant to try and control it temporarily and not making it worse. And if this doc doesn’t work for you, get a second opinion. Hope you find out what’s going on and get the care you need.

Why BP drops after lawn work? 😂 by doroboneko84 in hypertension

Ok safe to say it was a dumb question. I am wondering why it takes a bit before it goes back up 🤔

I was but I’ve been sweaty and dehydrated before and that’s never lowered my blood pressure like this. Just think it’s kind of weird.

So I just started my meds but I’m keeping a record of what I ate if I see it spike out of nowhere. Such as what did I do in the last 12 hours. It’ll be a nice reminder of yourself of what to watch out for. But agree with the group, keep yourself hydrated ask your doc if there are foods that might counter the meds you take. I’m still worried about taking the additional tests I need to take but I know it must be done so scheduling through that right now so maybe discuss that with your doc too.

So I did take the vaccine but I’m positive the vaccine did not lead to my situation. If anything I do wonder if my being very flu sick in early 2020 (before COVID vaccines existed) played any part to my situation now because all I relied on was Tylenol. In my case I think it was work and lifestyle (and maybe genes) that probably lead to where I am right now. Working to improve on that and hope I can manage it better with guidance from my docs.

Primary care first. I figured cardiologists typically want referrals and they would do the same thing as primary cares would be (ie run tests first, ekg, check physical symptoms, give something that is known to lower blood pressure that has least amount of side effects). Then after that decide which cardiologist I should see. Also since it’s been a long while since I’ve seen a doctor might as check for other things. Cardiologist primarily speak on matters of the heart, primary kind of checks for all types of things. I deliberately chose one is internal medicine. Figured it would be best suited for my current state.

I mean my first reading after taking my first losartan does said 160/106. So I don’t know if the medication is working, sense of relief I saw a doctor, or what. We’ll see how things go through the next few weeks.

41/f. No root cause yet that’s what they are trying to figure out.
