Hi Hersheysquirt (love the moniker) 😊

I fully understand your predicament (having been there countless times myself. I’ve been blessed that once I got back home my BP went back to controlled levels. 😊 I hope yours did too.

Best wishes for success with titration of your meds and the replacement works wonders for you.

Abundant blessings.

Love and prayers ,

EJ 🤗♥️🥰🙏🕊🌿🌸🦋

I have been on Amlodipine (10MG) AND Metroprolol ER (25MG) for years and my BP has been under control as well (I do BP test at home daily). But whenever I do BP at my doctor's office, my BP is always way much higher than what I got at home, it has been like that for years, I guess it's the white coat syndrome that I am having and there's not much my doctor or I can do about it.

Not what you're looking for?
