Author | Topic: DO ANY OF U GUYS HAVE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE? | ||
Cool Novice ![]() ![]() Posts: 33 |
I went to a job interview today & my blood pressure was high, now they want me to go to a doctor & get it checked out & put on medication if need be. I know gear will make it go up but it has been 6 months since i have been on. I take caffeine & ephedra from time to time to boost my work outs but did not today, i worked out about 8 hours before it was taken. It wouldn't still be up from working out would it? I always put on weight during the winter & eat whatever that could be part of it. What do u guys think & what do u guys do to keep the blood pressure down? P.S. If i have to go on medication for it is it alright to take it with gear? And what about decreased sex drive from blood pressure medication? Anyone know about this? THANKS BROS FOR ANY HELP!!! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I had a BP of 150/108 and the cardiologist I was seeing said if I exercised something would go "pop". Not good. I had to loose 30 lbs, and have extensive tests done. Apparently 95% of the time it just happens, they don't know why. My figures are fine during the day now, but at night they don't drop like they should. The doc said get some cardio and keep the weight down. ------------------ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Dr atlas had a few good posts a little while back on high BP and the use of ace inhibitor drugs. Do a search. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Changes of up to 30% are normal. You have to sit still for 5-15 minutes before taking a bp test. Know how high it can get during aerobics... 50% or more... Hate cardio... ------------------ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Im 32 and have been doing juice for about 11 years. I have a predisposition for elevated BP as it runs in my family, Im 5"9.5 and 215 off cycle. I huver around 135/90 which is low end of hypertension. If I do cardio like I should I notice a drop in 2 weeks. The best medication I have found on or off cycles is DIOVAN, 80mg. No dick probs, no slugishness, and its not a diuretic. On it for three years now....keeps me from blowing my top and offing somebody. Ask your Doc. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||
