What about a good blood letting or better yet donate a couple quarts that should bring down the blood pressure some.....

Only helps for a short duration. Takes about 8 weeks for the red and white blod cells to regenerate but the actual liquid returns within a day; about as soon as you get a good drink (a little exageration here but not much).

Good luck. You'll eventually get it sorted. Just realize the doc will probably have you back a few times to tweak meds and doses.

Had kidney stones and hospital pointed out high BP. Went to doctors and was monitored over a 3 week period, 140/100, put on Ramipril now 120/80 also on statins as I was 7.0 now down to 4.1 after 3 months. The bad cohlesterol reading was 4.8 down to 2.0

The meds are permanent daily treatment, but seem to do the job and luckily no side effects yet.

I hope you have the same experience!

Regards, Paul.
