Temporary fix for high blood pressure?????

[hawaiid]

Just sort of a question-180 over 100 isn't good, definitely too high, but it isn't to the point where he would be worrying about a heart attack is it? From my understanding, hypertension reaches much higher levels in most individuals who suffer a heart attack. Am I right? A little info from any knowledgeable individuals would be appreciated.

180/100 is stoke BP. It's WAY, too high. If you're pumping iron with BP like that, I hope you have a Will prepared. Excessive water intake with very high BP can exacerbate your problem because you will only add to the fluid volume in your arteries and, thereby, add more pressure to the already strained blood vessel walls. What you're referring to is when your BP is under control, it's healthy to drink a lot of clean water to keep your kidneys functioning properly and minimize the amount of sodium that is cobtained in your cells. But that doesn't mean to go out and pound water when you have high BP. Anti-E's, Zinc and Vit. C will do nothing for high BP. The best things to do, as stated by liftsiron and elaborated on by me, is to use a low dose diuretic for this type of BP problem. hth

diuretics will help your systolic (the higher number), not so much your diastolic (low number). His diastolic is high at 100 or worse at 120.

Your bud nees to get off the gear pronto. He is only fucking himself by practicing with such a high blood pressure. He could be on the field and suffer a hemorrhagic stroke on the spot. Such a high pressure is like busting a water pipe.

40butpumping I agree with you on all points, I should have stated for short term results, 40mg of lasix. I've been on that dose now for 3 months with no ill side effects. However I'm using it under the supervison of an M.D. with frequent blood work being done.

Ripped 1979 I think that you should see a doctor asap, I would worry about kidney damage and other complications with a lower reading that high. !20/70 is in the normal range, 140/90 is in the upper limits of that range.
