High Blood Pressure
"Went to the ER at the local hospital for excruciating back pain, &amp; found my BP to be 213/103 which was enough to have me admitted. Spent 3 days in there, &amp; 50mg twice a day of Hydralazine was one of the meds they put me on. Taking these with a meal, &amp; glass of milk to try to ease the side effects barely helps. I get really drowsy with body aches where I want to take a nap, but can&#039;t sleep, &amp; find myself sitting staring at the floor a lot, unable to concentrate, really short of breath to the point where just walking 50 feet becomes laboring. On a positive note my diastolic reading has dropped over 50 points. As for the back pain, I found out a previous blood pressure medicine had drained my body of Potassium, Once my levels were normal the pain went away."
