Brief Answer:
Most likely NOT

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about these worries that you have with you blood pressure readings. None of these medications or teas can cause a raise in your blood pressure readings. I will suggest that you get this blood pressure readings controlled again to get a definite trend and see what the possible cause is. Do you have any other issues disturbing you at this time? Can you also report a few of the readings to me for evaluation and interpretation?

In all, these drugs and products are not possible causes of these symptoms. Report your readings and drug history for evaluation and more insights.

I hope this addresses your query fully. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.

I have always had low bp. I had my physical annual and she found it 139/90. My doc says she usually start meds once it hits 140. I have been checking all weekend and it's all over the board and high 140/90. I stopped by a medical office Sunday to have nurse record it , it was 151/96. Greeting ready to travel tomm so think I will go into clinic in Wisconsin. Are these numbers consider high? Should I be too concern to travel. I am thin about 140 lbs 5 51/2 and pretty active. Any tips on improvements I could make. Thanks doctor

Brief Answer:
You need to relax and stay calm!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for this follow up.

Yes, you can travel. Though the values are in the range of persons requiring treatment, they are not too concerning to call of a travel arrangement.

How many times you have gotten you blood pressure measured and the rapidly changing nature in readings after being informed of this by your doctor is concerning. Am afraid you worried nature would rather aggravate the reading and push you into the red zone than help the situation. Be relaxed and calm down.

The paradox with high blood is that the more you get worried about it, the higher it goes and the more you become concerned. This creates a cycle that goes on and on. Break and avoid unnecessary treatment especially when not needed.

I wish you well. let me know whether there is much you would like us to talk about at this time.
