Ouch Is This Blood Pressure High? Help!!!

[mor123]

The Doc today said that my blood pressure is 148/100. I just finished a cycle these last couple of days. What is normal and should I be worried?? Also I had just finished coming off of mushrooms like an hour and a half prior. Would that affect it? Probably but just looking for some info.

Thanks boys

well, that is a little high but not outrageous, if you just did a cycle....

what was your cycle comprised of?

 

[mor123]

I did suspension and fina. Actually I am still tapering everyday with suspension.

Hmmm I am 20 years old and just started my TT Cyp/EQ/Dbol cycle one week ago.. checked my BP at a Savon with that kickass machine and said I had 150/80 with 83 BPM. Not to good

It is a little high..but while doing a cycle why you wanna mess it up doing mushrooms,its different if they're Delmonte. But man!!!RADAR

 

[M.O.D]

you cant go by one reading since there are many things that can raise your bp...start taking several readings during the day and keep a log

 

[trial0r]

The higher (systolic) number represents the pressure while the heart is beating.
should be 100 + your age (approx.)
The lower (diastolic) number represents the pressure when the heart is resting between beats.
A blood pressure reading equal to or greater than 140 over 90 is considered elevated or high.

My sentiments exact....Doesn't seem like you're a responsible person to take gear and hallucingenic substances at the same time. Much less see your doctor a few hours later.

I am 20 years old. And I didn't go see my family doc with an appointment. I had an ear infection and was going to get some antibiotics.

Also I am not saying that doing drugs all the time is a good thing but when you haven't touched ANYTHING for 2 months + you want to just relax and enjoy yourself since you worked so hard. SO to all the people who sit there and wag fingers about something as simple as mushrooms here it is. LOTS of pros do drugs. Yes even the pros that you love and respect so much. Think about it. They can't drink etc.... and pump more drugs than most cattle farmers do. You think they frown upon different KINDS of drugs? No. Some don't but most do. I have partied with top ten pros after shows and they do e, g, k, blow, nubain and any other painkillers they can get their hands on. They told me that most or close to ALL pros do drugs. Even a former Mr. Olympia I know for a fact LOVES G. Basically to all those that judge YOU DON'T KNOW SHIT!!!

Peace.
And thank to all the boys for info. I think it was the shrooms.

Bro,

Rec drugs are an indivcidual decision. Some deide yes, some decide no. Take it easy.

Just because a past Mr O has done them doesn;lt mean it is good.

Your BP is not bad. Check it again in a few weeks.

 

[mor123]

I'm not really gettin that upset it's just that I hate when stupid people say "Oh you have done a drug, you'll never succeed or get big" meanwhile lots of pro bodybuilders have and I am sure some or most of Mr O's have. Drugs don't help you get muscle but obviously they can't impede too drastically because the pros don't seem to mind it.

TrialOr is correct about what the top and bottom numbers (systolic/diastolic) mean.

In addition, the top number is often called the "stroke" number. Anything over 200 has a greater potential for a stroke. This is measuring moving blood through the body. This has nothing to do with your pulse or your heart beat. They may remain normal until you realize how high your blood pressure is and then they will escalate from fear and, in turn, drive the blood pressure up further.

The lower number (diastolic) also represents how much blood is at rest in the vessels.

So.....If you have a high pressure of blood surging through the body......and a high pressure of blood resting in the body.......

High blood pressures that go untreated have the potential to DAMAGE major organs like the kidneys, heart, lung, and brain. They are tissues that can only take so much.

THEN.....this damage can be called:
Kidney failure
Pulmonary Embolus (blood clot in the lung)
Myocardial Infarction (heart attack)
Stroke


I completely agree with Matt. It is not outrageous but keep an eye on it and get it checked again.

go to a grocery or drug store and check it again. but do it like 4x in a row cause it changes so much. i did it yesterday and at 1st i was at 158/75 ouch. then i did it a few more and by the 4th time i was down to 131/50 with a 59bpm. i have to admit, this is the one side effect that scares me the most. im on a dbol/sus/eq cycle
