Guest guest Posted June 15, 2012 Report Share Posted June 15, 2012 Hi everyone. Still waiting for my second blood test to come in to confirm high ratio, low renin. For the mean time I am on Nefidipine 30mg and bystolic 5mg. I noticed that for now it keeps my pressure lower most of the time I have days where my pressure is 175/110 for a few hours and other days where my pressure is 98/58 and I feel like a slug. Seems there is no rhyme or reason to it. I want to stop taking it for a few days. I've noticed some unpleasant side affects.... racing heart, anxious, sweating, constipation (thats embarrassing but VERY true) is it okay if I just stop taking it for now?.... I've been on them only for 2 weeks. I have an appt. with the Neph on Wed. to go over my blood work and hopefully schedule my saline suppression test.... and i'll make sure to bring this up with him then. but I just DREAD taking those silly pills tonight! I plan on calling my cardiologist on Monday morning.... 38 yrs female Renin0.14 low, Aldo ratio 107.1 high (may 9th bloodwork 10am) nefidipine 30mg (been on for 2 weeks) Bystolic 5mg (been on it for 4 weeks) CT scan (normal for now) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
