High BP Suggestions??

[nomad05]

Just got back from physical therapy & they took my blood pressure. 138/98. Never had high bp before but also never took it during/mid cycle.

Week 5 of 12 week cycle
Currently on 750mg Test E
Was using Deca 400mg but switched 10 days ago to EQ 600mg (I have only taken one shot so far)

was taking proviron & AIFM to control estrogen.

Is this considered high BP?
Any supplements specific to help lower BP?
should I drop the EQ or lower the test?
I thought Anti-E's helped w/BP is this correct?

guess that rules out Tren ace for the final 6 weeks ...oh well, I am not one to screw with BP...then again tell me if I am overreacting. I try to limited sodium as much as possible but don't go crazy w/it-

Thanks for the input

oh yeah I am 5 9" about 185-190 10-11%BF

Your BP is not high - it's borderline. You should be able to get it under control by watching your sodium intake and water retention. Be sure to drink plenty of water. A good anti E and 1.25 gallons of water per day is usually enough for me. Years ago I was on a heavy cycle that caused my BP to spike much higher than yours. I added a mild diuretic to shed some excess water, and that helped.

Cardio also helps as well.

98 Diastolic, is considered Hypertension


I would not worry about it, if it continues or increase, see a cardiologist after your cycle.

Sometimes as we age, a mild BP medicine like diovan is helpful.

Cheap, safe and very helpful.

Funny we just had this topic of convo the other day....could be the juice..check your diet and sodium...but your bp isnt that high to start stressing

 

[jagerbombme]

were you doing stuff at physical therapy before they checked your bp, cause that'll raise it too. unless your sitting there for a couple minutes perfectly calm and not at all anxiety or anything, then it would read higher. i had someone check my bp at my house and it was 122/70

but if im in the docs office. i always worry what it's gonna read (for some reason) and or the stress of whyever i am there, it always reads 135ish/80ish

so it all depends on alot more than what it showed.

Hayzaar is an awesome blood pressure med I run when Im "on"....Its not a beta blocker so therefor it does not mess with your erections.

Diovan is great as well....Your BP problems do sound cycle related....Make sure your drinking enough water and cardio a few times per week certainly would not hurt.

taurine, magnesium, fish oil

No it was before the therapy session. Took the right arm & was surprised so it took the left arm after.

Thanks for all the feedback. Will def watch sodium & start increasing the cardio (had been doing zilch) Gotta go back in for more sessions so I am sure they will check it next week-
