Hello, I came down with a flu bug before Thanksgiving. A few days into it, I noticed my BP spiked. I felt hot, dizzy etc. I currently take a BP med in morning, but a doctor prescribed Amlodipine Besylate as another precaution. After several hours, my BP returned to normal for several days. Last night, I noticed it spiking again. I had trouble sleeping. I took my morning dose of Losartan/HCT today and my BP was normal after a couple hours. Now its getting high again. I still have a cough, chest congestion. Could I have an infection that is causing these spikes?
