Hi

My blood pressure always goes up when I am on Zoladex. Both my GP and my gynae say it can't be related to the drug as it's not a common side effect, but it always comes back down when I come off it.

On the other hand, I do always put weight on when on Zoladex too, so the blood pressure could be related to that.

For me, although the side effects are horrible, the benefits are absolutely worth it, but everybody reacts to it differently x
