I think your doctor handled you very wrong. Such medicines are dangerous alone, let alone combined with gear. I hope you are off now, and be sure to get blood work if you ran either of these for sometime...Lithium is famous for permanent sides.

Thats me.

Good post, the single most effective way I have found of lowering my blood pressure is doing regular cardio year round

cardio is king for keeping your BP in check especially while on EQ because it will help you put the extra RBC's in your system to good use and essentially "use them, instead of lose them" and drive your pressure through the roof.

That's good to know. I'll keep that in mind.

I'm glad I found this article, I think this should be pinned to the top forever bump and thanks for a great article bro...

jtunderdog · 09-15-2008, 02:20 AM

I got the crap scared out of me on my bp one time. It was like over 170 on top and threw me in a panic attack (which I have anyway.) I ended up going to the hospital and got adavan and it calmed me down. Why do I tell you this. Here is the thing. Many of you guys have big arms I am sure. The average cuff is for arms "up to" 13 inches. My arms at the time were 17 and my measurement was way off. Make sure you get checked with the right size cuff. It makes a huge difference. My bp was actually like 135 on top.

Crazymank · 09-15-2008, 07:55 AM

Good read. Specially right now for me.

good post man, high blood pressure runs in my family so thanks

italiancash · 02-16-2009, 02:10 AM

some natural ways to lower your blood pressure lets start with supplements to take that may help
Hawthorn

The herb hawthorn is often used by traditional herbal practitioners for high blood pressure.

In a randomized controlled trial conducted by researchers in Reading, UK, 79 patients with type 2 diabetes were randomized to receive either 1200 mg of hawthorn extract a day or placebo for 16 weeks. Medication for high blood pressure was used by 71% of the patients.
At the end of the 16 weeks, patients taking the hawthorn supplement had a significant reduction in mean diastolic blood pressure (2.6 mm Hg). No herb-drug interactions were reported.
Fish oil

Preliminary studies suggest that fish oil may have a modest effect on high blood pressure. Although fish oil supplements often contain both DHA (docohexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), there is some evidence that DHA is the ingredient that lowers high blood pressure. Learn more about fish oil.

Coleus forskoli
lowers blood pressure and aids in fat loss

Folic acid

Folate is a B vitamin necessary for formation of red blood cells. It may help to lower high blood pressure in some people, possibly by reducing elevated homocysteine levels.

One small study of 24 cigarette smokers found that four weeks of folic acid supplementation significantly lowered blood pressure.
Diet

diet called the DASH-Sodium reduces sodium to 1,500 mg a day, which is approximately equal to 2/3 teaspoon from all sources (processed and canned foods contain hidden salt).
Patients following the DASH-Sodium diet had a significant reduction in high blood pressure.
More: The Salt Wars: Is Salt Restriction Necessary?
Calcium, Magnesium, and Potassium

Calcium. Calcium supplementation appears to have a modest but statistically significiant reduction in systolic blood pressure (mean difference of 2.5 mm Hg), however better quality studies are needed. Learn more about getting enough calcium in your diet.
Potassium. A meta-analysis of five trials indicated that potassium supplementation compared to a control resulted in a large but statistically non-significant reduction in systolic blood pressure (mean difference 11.2 mm Hg) and diastolic blood pressure (5.0 mm hg). Learn about potassium in the diet and find out which foods have potassium.
Magnesium. In 12 randomized controlled trials, participants receiving magnesium supplements did not have a significantly reduction in systolic blood pressure, but they did have a statistically signicantly reduction in diastolic blood pressure (mean difference 2.2 mm Hg). Read more about magnesium in the diet.
Herbs and Supplements To Avoid

Herbs that have been found or suspected to cause high blood pressure include:
Licorice
Ephedra
Asian Ginseng
Rosemary essential oil

italiancash · 02-16-2009, 02:26 AM

i personally take every day
omega 3 fish oil
coleus forskoli
3 grams of vitamin c
and 1 gram of l-aginine

and while on cycle i order in propranolol which is a beta-blocker it works well for preformance axiety and is not a controlled substance you can order online without a script and it wont get seized. i would suggest a low dose starting around 20mg to see how your react and slowly increase dose, but watch your pulse do not take it if your pulse is below 55 as it can lower it even more. i am taking it now with my tren and test cycle and my blood pressure hasn't gone above 137/80 pulse 68 i use to take it in college as with many other students when doing large speaches as it controls proformance anxiety. may be good for competition jitters as well which i will try with my first competition next year

jtunderdog · 02-16-2009, 02:30 AM

I was on a beta blocker for a while myself bisporic or something like that. My cougar hematologist told me she would drop me a scrip for it for my speech class. I wish she would offer a script for some test. LOL. This really is a great post.
