do you smoke or drink lots of Caffeine?
I run around 148/84 ave. over last 5 weeks, I have gone way higher then this.
The Doc. might give you some kind of "Beta Blocker" this is most common and with that comes certain possible sides.
excessive bleeding.
irritability
lack of sleep
noodle dick. irectile disfunction. to name a few.
the Dr. might have to try a couple diff. meds before you find the right one.
If they give you meds and you hit the gym you really need to be cautious the 1st few times, some guys pass out when they bend over or trying to lift heavy, and you'll have to figure that out as you go. Some meds slow your heart rate down and thin your blood so when you go to climb stairs your really winded for the 1st few minutes, until you heart kicks in, then your good to go.
If your on Meds, for BP you need to be communicating with your Doc. on how your reacting to the meds otherwise they can have dramatic effects on your day to day life.
the really important thing is to find out why your bp is up! it could just be stress related, or an underlying heart condition. eitherway don't fuck around get in to see your doc. and figure out what's up!!
