To be honest I am not sure..I am going to say it is usually around 75 but I am concerned to say the least. I am going to start monitoring my resting heart rate and go from there...

Don't get too worried about it. It can fluctuate like the wind blows. If you have a heart rate monitor then you can monitor it. They sell the watches the monitor heart rate; they are a good way to collect data points throughout the day. If you're going to monitor it, you will need to establish your data collection points for one day. Each day at the established time you should check your heart rate and record it on a tablet. If it is elevated try to determine what you did from the previous data point until then and record your findings. Maybe you drank some coffee or are some spicy food; maybe you have a meeting to attend or had one. You get the idea. This way you can determine if it is psychosomatic or if it is physiological. Do that for a week to start off and if you haven't nailed down a cause go another week and compare. If your resting heart rate continues to be high without any triggers (physiological) then you may want to consult your physician to see if he thinks it's a problem and to see if he wants to treat it. If it's psychosomatic, then you may have mild anxiety issues, in which case your physician may want to treat also depending on the severity.

Sneedham your HR could have been high from the anxiety you had about giving blood. I always get nervous when I go.
 
theres places all over too donate..warning-dont give em your real phone number..they will call you endlessly when the window is up and you can give again..as bad as telemarketers..

Good to know, thanks for the tip
 
98 is a pretty fast resting heart rate IMO, is that normal for you? I know one guy with a fast normal resting rate, when I was in "good shape" for being 250 pounds mine was 52.

Cutting coffee does help even if its not noticed (OP), coffee doesn't kill your BP all day long so I don't know if you drink 10 cups or what. If you drink coffee, are dehydrated, and then test within an hour or so it will be higher than otherwise.

I normally have one or two Monster/Rockstar every day. I cut it down to one when I got on this cycle, then last week cut it out completely when I started having the BP issue. 2 nights ago, I needed a pick me up and drank a Monster. 20 mins later I felt like my BP was high. Needless to say, im cutting that shit completely from here on out while on cycle

I was doing the same damn thing with the Monster's. I was semi-addicted to them for a year. I drank 1-2 every morning once I got to my office. It got to the point they were making my hands tingle about 1 hour after consumption. Fuck that, I don't drink them on or off of a cycle. If it's doing that to my BP when off, it isn't good for me either way. I'm done with the Monsters...

I think CoQ10 should be used as well along with another supp such as cialis, etc.....D-bol always spikes my BP even at 30mg dont know exactly why, maybe just how I react.....

check your diet and keep it clean from junk food and such. Also, I was cuting salt out thinking it helps but not really. I eat normal salt now and feel much better.
 
HamHands- the portion you quoted, while maybe not clear or eloquent, was mean't to say that your body gets used to beta blockers and you are not supposed to stop their use abruptly. Any doctor monitoring your beta blocker use will tell you that you need to taper before coming off, precisely because your body gets accustomed to, or dependent on, the beta blockers. This is from my doctor and the package insert of the meds. Just google beta blocker and taper and you will find a lot of legit sources explaining this phenomenon. Coming off can be tricky and dangerous if not done right- although much may depend on genetics and length of use, etc.

So the takeaway to the OP was meant to be that beta blockers usually work well while on cycle imo, but there are some possible side effect considerations that one needs to make. I would be reluctant to self medicate beta blocker (maybe just personal pref), but if you and your doc decide they are appropriate for your circumstances, my experience has been that it usually works well on cycle- tren and drol being the exceptions as they sometimes spike my bp even with some meds.

Of course, everyone's experience is different, but it's good to hear folks' different experiences.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for clearing that up BF, I understand better what your talking about now. It's good to hear your experience too. Everybody is different. Genetics play a huge roll in it all. Me, my brother, and mother can take (Bystolic or Propranolol) beta blockers; for extended periods, (6) months and then cold turkey it for (1-2) months with zero side effects. (Other than my blood pressure going back to normal; normal for me is 145/90, and has been since I was 20 years old.) I've cold turkey'd Lisinopril now for the last month just to see if I need it on cycle as much as I do off, and I do need it. I'm going back on it today. The only side effect I had from quitting Lisinopril is some water retention from gear...My Lisinopril is combo'd with hydrochlorothiazide, a diuretic to treat hypertension. Lisinopril/Hctz combo and Bystolic have been been clean (side effects wise) and life prolonging drugs form me...
 
Hamhands- Do you get dry mouth with lisinopril. My dry mouth is killing me and it's mostly from the clonidine. I HATE that side effect..

Just an update...been on the tadalafil for a few days now. Went to donate blood today. I was 140/90 and 78bpm. They said its a little high. While I was donating, I got dizzy as hell. Im thinking I still had some tadalifil in me and that didnt help. Lol, I learned my lesson there

No dry mouth from the Lisinopril at all, nor the Bystolic (beta blocker) I take daily. I hate dry mouth. It reminds me of the days when I used to abuse Adderall in college...
 
If it's water retention, try some Midol...SERIOUSLY.
If you can't get it down on your own, drop the orals and whatever else is elevating your BP.
If the Cia is working for you, great.

I am hypertensive, no choice but to take BP meds.
Amlodipine, Losartan and Metoprolol. I was switched to those three from Lisinopril/HCTZ after being diagnosed with CKD.
The Lisinopril is processed by the kidneys rather than the liver. Have renal function checked if you're taking Lisinopril.

The good news is, with all those meds, keeping BP in check while on cycle...no problem.
 
HCTZ for water retention. Water retention raises BP so if get rid of bloat you lower BP.

Many BP meds are available in combination with HCTZ for those who don't get enough reduction with a single med.
