Thanks - that sounds promising. Did you notice any unexpected improvements to wellbeing that the medication brought about? I have a tendency for migraines and have been experiencing some level of chest pains which am hoping the medication rectifies, but maybe there are negative impacts that the high blood pressure is having that I'm not connecting, maybe with energy levels, sleep quality etc.

I noticed an improvement when I got put on the Amlodipine, that came a few years after starting on the Ramipril. My BP randomly went up again so needed more meds.
I have obstructive sleep apnea as well which may have contributed but now that I'm on therapy there hasn't been a BP decrease. So who knows? I've done everything I can to reduce stress in my life now I just need to drop a few kgs.
But TBH I feel shit most of the time. That's just old age. 🤣

Easy to control with medication, I'm on Amlodipine and Ramipril. Mine came on very suddenly around nine years ago, everything was totally normal then it decided to jump up. Nothing had changed with my health/diet/etc, it seems to be a hereditary thing. Was fortunate that it was picked up almost straight away, I've been on the tablets ever since.
