Until recently my BP was always LOW. I am 76. I am not overweight-I do not smoke-I exercise every day-I eats lots of fresh fruit and Veggies-I am a vegan. But my BP has been 147/73 for several days now. How long should I keep testing my BP? Before asking for Rx?

@@MrJBlac no major ones, my ankles are a little puffy and sore on the inside, but other than that nothing, it’s knocked my BP for six though, down from 160/104 to average 127/85

On the same boat as you. My doctor thinks it’s because of another issue and not Amlodipine. I would love to hear about your experience today. Are you still having them?
I was told to discontinue the use of Amlodipine as it gave hypotension. I was getting extremely dizzy when standing from a sitting position. I would get out of my car and become extremely dizzy for about five or 10 minutes.
It controlled my B/P and I felt great . But every B/P med i have been put on caused a nasty , thick 24 hr a day cough. It was awful to get rid of . It’s about the breakdown of cytokines at the lung barrier. I had to stop it.
