Hypertension is no Fad at all Arfa, its a very prevalent and real problem. I have and I know quite a few who are thus afflicted, and yes you are right that some tolerate some drugs better then others. And sometimes more than the one drug is a very good idea to come at it from more then the one treatment angle.

What is also a known is not all doctors are the same and I had a total incompetent who didn't pick up the hypertension at all for severe recurrent headaches instead got me addicted to Ergotamine and some others that didn't do any good at all.

At SWMBO's insistence I did consult another GP and she picked up this straightaway treated the HT and lo and behold the almost daily headaches I did suffer from disappeared and a vast reduction hypertension figures:)

Also not all hospital dept's are the same, some are better than others....

Thats par for the course or condition;!..

Well its best checked over the whole day and averaged out but the idea is not to just keep the doctor quiet its to keep you well;)

Its good that combined with something like Candesartan..

FWIW I've been on that some 15 years now and very well tolerated. But I know that its not the case for everyone some are better at that than others. Overall its a well tolerated drug but sometimes it can take quite a bit of trial and error to get it right.

A friend of mine she had HP, well fit she was too a dance teacher by profession and one day had severe chest pain's and had had a small heart attack, her BP was very high and treated it was fine but it drove her to disappear to find the right treatment combination....

I've had quite a few odd variations with electric ones and more often than the once have had to get them to use the mech one's;!...

Well thats not -that- great a variation ..

Bit un-called for. This thing should be decided over a longer time measurement span..

Very wise too, after all servicing and diagnosing most stuff isn't that different;)..

Well they are human after all and the young ones it seems have stuff to learn. I usually find it a bit reassuring if the person I'm seeing is a bit on the grey side, 'tho not too stuck in his her ways;)...
