Not the results I was looking for...

Went to the dr for a 3 month evaluation of my blood pressure and was very disappointed when I came back with an elevated reading. It was so good the last visit and I was hoping for yet another good check up. We discussed the fatigue and lightheaded issue and she was in agreement that it could be the medication and told me to try taking it in the evening instead of the morning or that it could the the menopause issue. They drew blood to see where my hormone levels are, did an EKG which was normal and are sending me for a dopple sonogram on the carotid arteries to make sure there is no blockage there. So back to the drawing board and we'll see what I can do in a month's time to get a better result.

Susan, I'm really sorry to hear you're continuing to have problems with your blood pressure. Do you take any kind of nutritional supplements to help? Several are considered essential in helping to lower it.
Calcium -- 1,500 - 3,000mg daily;

I do hope you feel better soon. Rhonda has some good advice too. I have heard about dietary calcium and bananas being good for your bp.
Good luck with your tests. Take care of yourself.
