My name is Erniefel Grageda 67 yrs old male .
I have CKD 5 and have been on Hemodialysis since May 2015 up to the present.
Prior to this my BP was within the Normal range... 130/80
During my Hemodialysis the Facilty would give me EPOEITIN 5000 units IV ... that woukd be every Mon Wed Fri.
I noticed that my BP started to rise .... at present my BP is 170/ 80... I told my Nephrologist about my concern ...
and msntioned to him if the Epoeitin could cause the elevation of my BP. He said .. they had to give it cuz I had severe Anemia.... I see the logic ... true enough my Hemoglobin improved from 8 to 10.
My present medicztions are : TELMISARTAN 80 MG once a day....after breakfast
AMLODIPINE 10 MG once day ... after supper
In spite of this...my BP remains elevated..
What do you suggest?
Thank you
Ernie
