BLOOD PRESSURE AND THE SLEEVE

[dcoates 0]

has anyone had any issues with blood pressure control during your weight loss with your sleeve?

for the first 2 months, i was really good.120/70, then it spiked to 170/100.

went to see my PCP and he said the honeymoon phase of the surgery is over, now time to start the meds again?

i was on 3 different meds before surgery, was hoping to get off all meds.

at least they are the cheap ones.

with meds, i'm back to normal.

anyone else had any issues

My BP steadily dropped as I lost weight. Perhaps you have some other underlying health issue besides obesity that is driving it.

I monitor my blood pressure every morning. I noticed that sudafed makes it go up at least 20 points. Caffeine does that too. I have avoided both.
