High blood pressure during PCT

[MorganKane]

Its over 5 weeks since my last shot and I am doing PCT.
Did 10,000iu of HCG weeks ago.
Now I am taking aromasin every day, think its 20mg and I am using Sustain Alpha, well its the test recovery stack.

I did not really crash and I am doing well besides some strange headaches.
I did have my blood pressure checked tonight and its 140/90 and thats high for me.

I noticed the headaches about 5 days ago.

As far as I know I dont think that the Sustain Alpha will cause high blood pressure, actually I think it helps lowering it. I dont know about Endoamp and toco-8. Maybe PP can chime in on this one.

Not found anything on Aromasin causing it either.

Diet and training is the same, nothing changed there.

Any suggestions?

you got it checked just that one time?

get a monitor and check it at different times of the day - keep track of diet

lower sodium and drink lots of water

Any suggestions?

1) 10,000 iu HCG in one shot? -- hcg aromatizes at a high rate = hi estrogen = water retention = high BP, but a few weeks have gone by and ur on aromasin, so I dont know about that connection.

Dont know what the effects of the sustain/endo/toco would be.

2) Natural Remedies for HBP:

-grape seed extract 200mg 3x daily (~ 10% drop)
-taurine 1.5 grams 2 or 3 times a day
-magnesium/potassium supplements (dont recall doses)
-lots of water
-long term vitamin C 500-1,000 mg daily (~10% drop)
-co-q10 as much as ur pocket will stand
-no salt
-hi-fiber diet (or psyillium seed husk products like metamucil)
- lose some weight

-also, anything that acts as a vasodialator, or improves endothelial (sp?) flexibility - especially if the mechanism is via the nitric oxide cycle --- iow, things like viagra/cialis/no2 workout boosters, arginine, citrulline malate

(viagra was originally investigated as a BP med)

Use the above as a starting point for your research but dont substitute it for medical supervision

Not in one shot but 10 shots actually.
But its been 3 weeks or so since last HCG shot.

Checked several times.
My wife is a nurse.

Like I said diet and training is the same and has not changed.
The only things that has changed:
Aromasin and test recovery stack.

no salt... water... vasodilators, taurine...

Speaking of vasodilators. Theres a new BP medication called "Bystolic", trade name "Nebivolol" that has been highly touted for its Nitric Oxide potentiating effects. It is the first Beta Blocker to have this trait.
