Hawthorn and CQ10 seem to help me feel better but, not a drastic improevment on my BP actually.

Yea. My doctor is a friend of the family soo she just gave me like a few years supply of "samples" and it did the trick immediately.

It droped my bp back to almost normal while on cycle this time

If that dose not cut it go to the doc and get some bp med's

BP is not somthing to mess around with

Next cycle I think I am going to go ahead and get some doc prescribed bp med's to have on hand just in case

Did you get your blood sugar result's back yet

I use Benicar with a diuretic in it....when on cycle i have to use tarka as well...both prescribed by a doc....at one point my cholestrol was horrible and had to use zetia....but throughout the whole thing i was on huge cycle....never felt different.

My BP is 166/88

Cholesterol is a problem but will hopefully subside after PCT

Liver/Kidneys are fine even after Dbol

Doc did not get test levels though I told him I wanted them also

I won't go back on until I get back to normal after this.

Do cholesterol/BP meds help reduce cardiac hypertrophy at all?

Does anyone recomend or know how to use any cholesterol meds?

**SMAN12b** · 07-25-2006, 05:43 AM

bump for more info since my cholesterol isn't the greatest either

**Bigmax** · 07-25-2006, 07:29 AM

You need to get it prescribed by a doc...Because some meds like zocor or tricor are horrible on the liver...zetia which is good med is not ran through the liver(dont know how that is done)...i was on tricor and my liver enzymes got scary and the doc put on zetia...there is a new one called vytorin.which is zetia blend with something else...supposed to be great.But its usually taken right before bed.tell you guys bad diet usually contributes highly to cholestrol....along with AAS like my doc said...walking time bomb...To answer your question skull...cardiac hypertrophy???..do you mean an enlarged heart??? cause you know if you're blood pressure stays high thats what you will get!!!!...there is a BP med thats been known to bring it down a bit and thats AVALIDE its new and its stonger rendition of AVAPRO...you may want to ask your doc about it.

Thanks. I gotta look into it.

My diet has been really clean and my cholesterol is still shitty.

**PROTEINSHAKE** · 07-25-2006, 10:54 AM

Yes, Lotrel for BP & Zetia for cholesterol. VLDL was 15 last week. BP is
about 110 over 70.

**Bigmax** · 07-25-2006, 11:42 AM

There are different BP medicines. I went threw about 5 to 10 different ones.
You got to go to Doc and get samples. They always start out with very
weak stuff. You have to be persistant.

**guest589745** · 09-30-2006, 07:53 PM

Need more info.

Have access to a plethora of meds and want to get some in case, for next cycle.

**Tommy Boy** · 09-30-2006, 08:31 PM

I take Vytorin which hits your genetic cholesterol, as well as, all the shit I eat , like babyback ribs, ice cream, etc. Good stuff no sides for me. Cholesterol numbers are perfect except, HDL right at 40, bare minimun.
Also take Avapro for BP which goes up no matter what for me on cycle ...so I just double up the dose. BP stays around 130/80 to 140/90 on cycle
120/77 off. I say **** Cholesterol. It goes up and down anyway.
BUT... It's the high BP that can drop you like a left hook. Literally.
Avapro is a good med.
