High Blood Pressure
"I am a healthy 39 year old AA mom of 3.  I was diagnosed with high blood pressure after a stressful divorce and other life changing events.  My doctor gave me samples of 10mg Bystolic.  I went from 195/150 to 120/80-textbook.  I take Bystolic in the morning on an empty stomach and it has a calming effect so I was also able to eliminate Valium and Xanax from my life!  I feel amazing.  The only side effect I&#039;ve noticed is my left arm feeling like it&#039;s &quot;thinking&quot; about falling asleep.  I&#039;m okay with that as long as it&#039;s not tingling, numbness or pain associated with the stroke I might be having were I not managing my blood pressure.  I also find that I can no longer make it off my normal 4-5 hours of sleep.  I need 7-8 or I fall asleep in the middle of a sentence (LOL)."
