Hi, How long have you had high blood pressure for? I was on rampiril but it did not work for me and gave me a cough. I switched to amlopodine 10mg and losartan 50mg and that brought it down. I also have just been diagnosed with fibro but it hasnt affected my blood pressure. I think you need to go back to your dr and change your meds if you can but you sound like you have a lot going on. Best of luck.

Hi Mystik

I have high blood pressure as well as an underactive thyroid. Best advice I can give is to contact your doctors as they might need to adjust the Ramipril or change medication.
