Living with Pulmonary hypertension/ I am new to this site
I am 64 this year and found out last year I had Pulmonary hypertension. I have always been an active person and I think that is the reason for me to live longer than the Doctor thinks I will. My parents told me I had Polio and Cerebral Palsy before I was 8 years old. The doctors told my parents that

Help with anxiety to reduce blood pressure
Hi, I'm a 52 year old and just been diagnosed with hypertension. I've been put on Ramipril 1.25 mg. I also suffer with anxiety which doesn't help. This has been pretty much a life long thing. Can anyone suggest anything to help reduce my anxiety as I'm sure it will help my high bp as now I'm super anxious

Olmesartan medoxomil - a type II ATR antagonist, or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB). . . . . used to reduce high blood pressure.
Is anyone reading this ( - or known to him/her) taking this ? A "yes" from one to two members would be very helpful and most appreciated ! This is available as a number of generics, including Olmecip by Cipla and Olmesmart by Dr Reddy's. Sid Arthur

IMRT only without radical prostatectomy
I assume this was
orthostatic
hypotension
caused by anxiety since I had a similar incident during blood donation 30 years ago. I was evaluated in the emergency room and released after a few hours. Questions after reading clinical literature: 1.

Anyone here on Diltiazem for pulmonary arterial hypertension?
Hi, consultant wants me to start taking Diltiazem (a calcium channel blocker) as I proved to be vasoreactive to it during my last right heart catheterisation. I am concerned about the dose he wants me to work up to in a very short space of time...especially as it does NOT agree with the guidelines issued

From triage to discharge: a user’s guide to navigating hospitals
If we aren't already familiar with how hospitals work for unplanned stays, a CLL diagnosis certainly increases our chances of finding out! Rather than learning this when your mind is rather occupied with other more immediate concerns, this article may prove a useful framework through which you can better

Diabetes and high blood pressure . . . .
Is there an association between diabetes and high blood pressure - or a known correlation? High blood pressure can be reduced by many drugs, including anti-hypertensive agents in the sub-group known as angiotensin type II receptor blockers. One drug in this sub-group is olmesartan, available as a generic

The KISS Principle.
With the toing and froing of the various regimes presented here there is one unassailable fact. If you are a type 2 diabetic it is because of your diet and lifestyle, and unless you identify and eliminate the foods that have caused your disease then you are faced with a lifetime of medicines and a deterioration

Early morning hypertension/headaches
My primary care doctor and rheumatologist know I have
orthostatic
hypotension
. The physical therapist encouraged me to stabilize my head with pillows before going to sleep in case I position my head in a weird position during the night.

Trouble with anxiety meds today.
They can take up to 3 weeks or even longer to work. Something the sufferer doesn't want to hear at a time when they are having these awful feelings. Diazepam or Valium are fantastic and can work very fast but sadly taking them after a few days or even the next day will not have the same desired effect

High Blood pressure pills
Hi, About a month ago I stopped taking my BP medication - Lisinipril. I've had this Rx for many years but always felt that it made me a bit tired and perhaps contributes to having a hard time falling asleep and headaches. My BP is better after adrenalectomy, but it's not great (avg: 140/100) so I still

hypertension and apixaban
Hi everyone, Despite 3 types of meds to control my hypertension, over the last months it's been creeping up to unacceptable levels (170/95 to 100/95 resting at home with a reliable machine) My GP has upped med dosages but so far to no avail. I'm on apixaban and I'm concerned about brain bleeds etc.
