Concussion/high blood pressure

[Mad Jasper]

Last May, I was violently attacked by a very thick (and clean) plate glass window. It left me with an acute brain contusion.

Just the week before I was attacked by a red wasp while riding my motorcycle. That little bitch made into my jacket an stung me twice. I had a bad allergic reaction and ended up with epi prescription going forward. I'll tell you this because I had my BP checked 3 times that week and it was never over 125/75 an never was before.

Post concussion, my BP has rarely been below 140/80. For reference, my only cycle was 2.5 months after the concussion.

I was put on Lisinopril and that stabilizes my BP, but gave me a terrible cough. I was off meds for about 2 weeks (about a month ago) and ended up in the ER with a BP of 180/110. I'm back on new meds for 3 weeks and I checked my BP today and it was 163/98.

Is there any know link to concussions and high BP?

I recommend you stop checking your BP, and as far as you know, everything will be fine.

That's all really sound advice and really thoughtful comments (and I expect nothing less from you guys) but the slight elevation started 2.5 months before my cycle. I've been off cycle for 9 weeks and the these high readings have only been in the last two weeks.

I've read we're severe head trauma can cause hbp, but nothing about concussions.

Indeed. I've never checked my BP, so I never worry about it.
