I have just been diagnosed with high blood pressure.. which is a real kicker cause i just got all my stuff for a killer cycle... its gonna be a deca/sus/d-bol.... I'll post more details if needed.... Have any of you had this type of problem? If so what did you do? Or what would be your advice for me... I wanna do my cycle... but don't really want to take a huge risk that could cause a heart attack... and my doctor's a boner... can't even mention roids around him... any help will be appreciated....

The Dbol is a great way to kick off that cycle but you shouldn't add it since it will cause your BP to go much higher. Anyone have any other ideas on what to sub for the Dbol? IP: Logged |

Give this a try. Take about 30-50gm of glycerol in water before bed at night. Itll dilute better in warm water, and a package of kool-aid (unsweetened) makes it more bearable. Its a mild (very, very mild) plasma expander and will help lower your blood pressure. IP: Logged |

Ironblood, you don't say how high. Any person should have a BP not higher then 9/14, no mather what age. You could take some medication to get it down, but there are too many side effects, like feeling tired (good for BB haha). Maybe herbs ? It's the salt and the water that gets it high. Some diuretic might help you, even if only one point, but every point counts. I know for sure PGF2a gets it down, but only the lower part. But I don't know if you take roids and PGF2a. ------------------ Don't look back, life is too short IP: Logged |

Categories of Hypertension by Blood Pressure Systolic (mm/Hg) / Diastolic (mm/Hg) 140/85 Normal Blood pressure 140 �160/85-90 High Blood Pressure (borderline Isolated Systolic Hypertension) 160 � 170/90-105 Mild Hypertension 160 � 170/105 - 115 Moderate Hypertension >170/>115 Severe Hypertension When doing a heavy cycle my blood pressure will always elevate to Mild Hypertension or Moderate Hypertension. I develop headaches, nose bleeds, and feel like death. I have found that 100mg of Lopressor (metoprobol) a day will work wonders for me. I have tried Catapres (clonidine) but prefer Lopressor because it has less side effects. Remember that you can go to your Family Practitioner if you are a victim Hypertension. Just tell your doctor that you are under a lot of stress from either work or school and you are experiencing elevated levels in your blood pressure. If the doctor should ask you if you have a family history of Hypertension then answer yes. NEVER ADMIT TO USING JUICE! The doctor will probably not have any lab work done and will put you on a low dose of Hypertension medication such as Lopressor (metoprobol). You will feel much better and be able to enjoy life again.

Would any one know if Vascotec would inhibit any type of cycle here? Vascotec I think is a very widely prescribed drug for hyertension. John IP: Logged |

I created a thread on this topic about 2 months ago. I experienced a large spike in my blood pressure while on my cycle (211/101). I discussed my use of anabolics with my doctor, and we decided to try a mild herbal diuretic (water pills). In 1 week my blood pressure was down to 155/80. If that hadn't worked, I would have gone down the following path until finding success: prescription diuretic My doctor wanted to stay away from a beta blocker because my workouts would suffer....it was a last resort option. If I'm going to put the addtional stress on my body by using anabolics, he at least wanted me to get some benefit from it. IP: Logged |
