What's your age?
33 Doc
Fact is I've no problem completing the cycle fella and NO I don't believe starting anti-hypertensive therapy is warranted AT ALL especially with Prazosin an alpha blocker which can cause orthostasis.
If you insist Doc, I pinned this morning after reading your email. I'll finish the last 2 weeks then.
Hey I overlooked your HX of Prazosin use for PTSD. If you tolerated that med by all means use it if desired. (FYI; VERY FEW BP meds reduce BP by more than 10mmHg )
Doc I actually don't take this. Its sitting in my medicine cabinet. I am very reluctant to take MOST medications because of side effects (AAS excluded lol).
Someone with your BP is typically started on a diuretic as first line. Usually between 25-50 mg of hydrochlorothiazide / day AND/OR discontinuation of the offending agent if known.
This is interesting. Should someone do this while ON cycle assuming higher levels of BP ?
I am also assuming you don't suggest this for me now since you find my ranges to be ok for my age.
Thanks for your feedback once again. I do tend to be extra cautious with my health.
