High Blood Pressure
"I&#039;m a white male 27 years old. High blood pressure runs in my family on both sides. I&#039;ve had high blood pressure since I was 23. I started with Norvasc 5mg and it was controlling it. When I turned 26 it got worse to stage 2 hypertensive and I got put on Norvasc 10mg. Had bad side effects from my knees down I got badly swollen knees, calves, ankles, toes. Then I was switched to Bystolic 5mg with a combination of Benicar HCT 20/12.5. Within days I had a drastic difference in my blood pressure. I had one side effect. I gained 15 pounds no matter my diet and exercise. My blood pressure went higher again and I was switched to Bystolic 10mg along with Benicar HCT for the last 2 months and I went from my BP at 160/105 to a nice calm 130/85. With zero side effects and I&#039;ve never felt better."
