Early last week I had a series of discussions regarding my elevated blood pressure. 3 weeks into my cycle of sust/ref/eq my blood pressure jumped to 197/101, on average. I just wanted to post an update that can possibly help others who are suffering from the same condition.

I started taking a mild herbal diuretic (water pills) from a local health food store. I have been taking 3 per day since Saturday morning. My latest pressure check was 168/85. My workouts are much more intense because I feel better. The constant headaches and fatigue are gone. I know many of you are dealing with similar symptoms, this is something you may want to try.

Thanks for the info, bro. My blood pressure has skyrocketed when I'm on but immediately goes back to normal. I think it has a lot to do with the water and salt retention. I have a couple of weeks left using test and deca before I swith over to Eq and Para. Hopefully my pressure will go down once I lose some of my water.

50 mg a day of lopressor works for me guys, unfortunately I'm on it for life, not just when on cycle, runs in the family. I may run it up to 75 mg when on cycle though, the one bitch I do have about it is I can't reach my target heart rate on the cross trainer I use at my gym, it holds the rate down.
