I've been on test for about 7 weeks and I notice a little shortness of breath and palpitations from time to time. Had my BP checked and it was 155/80, normally it's between 120-130/80. Should I be concerned if it's this high?
also, can nolva or l-dex effect BP while on test?
cant the person who mesured your bp tell you if you should be concerned?

a lot of times your top number is high just because you are a little nervous about getting your bp taken. For some reason I am always nervous when they take my bp, I have no reason why.
80 is a pretty good bottom number. The bottom is a "more true" number. The top number fluctuates quite a bit. I have some bad anxiety problems at times and my top number is always fluctuating. Keep an eye on it bro. Good luck.
the bottom # is the opne you want to watch, unless the top starts t get close to 200. 120/80 is considered the norm, but it also differs for everyone, my norm is around 110/60 But it will jump right up if I have had coffee, or any other kind of stimulants. Its something to watch, but you are not in any danger at 155/80
systolic (top) should be 100 plus your age, if it gets over 170/180 maybe some concern but the diastolic(bottom) is the biggest concern if over 90.
