High Blood Pressure
"I am a 57 year young woman in relatively good health. I struggled with my weight since my early 30&#039;s add anxiety &amp; I developed high blood pressure (BP) by age 40. I have been on 50 mg. of Losartan &amp; 12.5 mg. of hydrochlorathiazide. My BP did not improve much &amp; averaged 150&#039;s over 80&#039;s to mid 90&#039;s. Recently I started on a ketogenic diet which works great for insulin resistant folks &amp; I have lost 30 lbs in 10 weeks &amp; brought my BP down to 116/70 I asked my Dr to adjust my meds she said it&#039;s too soon. I began to have severe dehydration, black outs &amp; dizziness upon standing, profuse sweating, heat intolerance  &amp; fatigue so I stopped the hydrochlorathiazide on my own and all the bad symptoms went away &amp; BP still great! Listen to your body!"
