High BP

[Intalex81]

Just went to the doctor today for being sick the past few weeks and they checked my BP. 178/66. How bad is that? The nurse said thats high! The dr. came in and looks me over and says your bp is high for someone who is 25. Then he goes your not taking any steroids are you? I said, nah just creatine and protein. He said i should have blood work done.

im on 500mg a week of test e
dbol 40mg ed weeks 1-4

I'm on my 6th week so dbol has been dropped a couple weeks

you should have been honest with the doctor thats the only way they can fully diagnose your problem.... there not going to rat you out ... just give you a lesson about how bad steroids are... lol..

my problem was that I had walking phnemonia...that was diagnosed. The BP thing was just brought up when they checked my vital signs.

what's going to happen when the doctor runs a full blood screen on you?

[Intalex81]

Better hope nothing else happens.

I wouldn't be too concerned with your B.P.

Your Systolic (the upper reading) is high. (systolic) is measured by the pressure which your heart is pumping out blood. But your diastolic (the lower reading) is excellent. (diastolic) is measured by the pressure of blood against the arterial walls. The one which you gotta worry about the most. During AAS use, if it is above 90 it's usually due to water retention because the volume of liquid in your circulatory system and tissue is high. Yours is 66 which is excellent. Now your systolic is high, probably because AAS, especially test for some reason makes the heart beat faster and harder in some people. 178 is a bit high but typical when on cycle, especially 24 hrs after a shot of long esters and almost immediately after a shot of short esters like prop, depending on your tolerance. It then subsides at the end of it's half life. Not sure about Dbol though. Your diastolic is really good considering your on Dbol which is known to cause water retention in some people.

Nether the less, keep an eye on it anyway.

Props to Frank12391.

Systolic is a bit high, but the diastolic is very good. And that is the one to be concerned about. I have been going through the same thing. BP went really high, like 170/90! I believe it was because of the @#*#ed cycle that I ran. Listened to the wrong people. Anyway, they did put me on bp meds, and it has come down fine. I am sure that I will be off of them soon. I was using eq and winny. I really think it was the winny that jacked me up so bad. But I have also read on this site, that D-bol will raise bp. You could also try some hawthorn berry, red yeast rice, and baby asprin to keep it in control.

Let us know how it goes.

Thank you for the information. That was the whole point of starting this thread. I know my BP is high due to AAS. I just didn't know how bad that number was. I ran the exact same cycle last time and my bp went up. Some people want to argue the fact as to why i didnt tell the damn dr. I know why my bp is up, i just wanted to know how bad it was. Thanks frank and broboy!

tell them you get all worked up by seeing the white coats and that might prevent some tests.. That is a pretty high systolic pressure though ....
