Should I stop my blood pressure meds?
am 46 , I am 153(I use to be 190) I am 6.2. I always had high blood pressure(since the age of 16) and it was always emotional high blood pressure. I started taking BP medication about 8 years ago. Now I am on 2 medications Coreg 12.5 per day & Benicar 40mg per day. I switched to a Fruitarian Rwafoodist diet and my readings got mucfh better. Last week my readings dropped to 100/62. At work I had an icident and the paramedics came. My doctor told me to stop both medications right away and resume when my BP is normal. Do I really need to resume? What are my options here? Thanks
It has been 4 days and my BP average 115/82(without meds).
I have been on my Fruitarian-Rawfoodist diet for about 1 year 1/2
I have no cardio problem except that I am emotional that’s why Coreg
In case my BP comes back to normal /bordeline range I was thinking going for hawthorn berries?
PS: I almost got into a cardio arrest because of those 2 meds at work. So plz telling me to talk to my doc first won’t improve things. My diet profile has totally changed as well as my weight . I use to be 190 when I started the treatment.

It sounds like you are taking medications you do not need. I don’t know who decided to put you on a combination-therapy BP treatment when your high BP is only triggered by stress. Normally, a beta-blocker is all that is needed. You need to discuss this with your doctor and tell him specifically everything that is going on and that you feel your high BP is only caused by emotions. Have you tried using anything for the stress? (ie. antidepressants, antianxiety treatments). There is a test done with people like you where the doctor gives them valium and then takes their BP before and after to see if it is related to stress.
