A QUESTION FOR EMERIC

[HeavyHitter2]

My doc has me on Lisinopril(40mg) originally for renal hypertension, I was spilling protein into my urine. but a visit to a kidney specialist concluded that the amount of protein was not that big a deal(2-3 grams over 24 hours) he said for someone like myself who weight trains and has the muscle mass that I do, the numbers are actually within normal range, BUT, my BP is still a little high at times(140/90 avg) My question is, I just started taking Humanofort and if I understand correctly, has a role in lowering BP. should I stop taking the Lisinopril and see if the humanofort has any affect on my BP?
thanks

In most casess Dr.s can`t point the exact cause of blood pressure, you may have white-coat hypertension, which is blood presure goes up just becouse you are at Dr. office. You may check you blood presure at home 2 times per week. Or you may have prehypertension which can be regulated with the change of lifestyle. I am not a Dr. so I can`t recomend you to stop taking the Lisinopril, but the Humanofort definetly will help. You can monitor you blood presure every 3 days and reduce the Lisinopril to 20mg and check agent the blood presure, than lower the Lisinopril to 10mg, and check agent, and go off and check agent, kip taking the Humanofort and eat a lot of celery

I will try that. the wife is a nurse so she can take my BP with better accuracy without the "white coat" around. I do believe that elevates my BP.
thank you and I'll keep you posted.
