    headache on albuterol?

    Like the title says. I'm a week in on albuterol, 15 mg daily (dosed 2x). Also taking 75mcg t3.


    After about the 3rd day I started getting migraines.

    Coincidence? Anything I should check? I've done t3 before with no issues other then elevated temperature.

    Check your blood pressure. That's a lot of albuterol. Factor in the T3 and your BP could be dangerously high.

    Didn't take any today. Just took bp, going to stay seated a few minutes and take it again. . Not sure I trust the first reading (incredibly high).

    The albut recommended dosage is 10-15.. I'll post again with results of the bp

    First time I took it, I had just sat down. I also ate within the last 2 hours. It was 170/110! Had me worried.

    I stayed sitting for about 5 minutes and it's down to 145/90.

    Keep in mind, I haven't taken the t3 or albut today.

    I think I'll probably cut them both off. Monitor bp for a week, then add in one or the other. Monitor bp for 1-2 weeks then add the other back in. If my bp was 170/110 just from walking to the bedroom, I can't believe I haven't stroked out

    How long do you think it will take my bp to get back to normal?
    I took it this morning, upon waking, it was 140/90.

    I've got cialis, I'll start a low dose of it since it helps lower bp (and all the other benefits of course).

    Anything else I can do?
