Sucks but its your health,
This is why i tell people to never give up friends or life for the gym. Anything can happen then you have nothing
True, but the doctors I would tell this to before were hesitant about putting me on drugs. They also knew about my lifting and told me that was a good thing. They asked me about my diet, stress levels, etc.; and I would tell them those are all fine. I know a diet high in sodium also increases blood pressure, but my sodium intake was relatively low. One's health should always be a priority though. As "bodybuilders" (I put that in quotes because I don't label myself one) though, we tend to prioritize vanity over health as long as it is not too extreme (e.g. a diet high in protein or AAS use).
