Anne - re: high blood pressure?????

[Guest guest]

Only when you have time & think of it,

Anne, but thank you in advance. I happen to have naturally-low blood

pressure, but I also do happen take Pravachol for inherited-from-my-mother hypercholesterolemia

(my Rx insurance inexplicably switched me over to that, from Zocor. They

never explained why, but I did a little sleuthing on my own & discovered Zocor

use is sometimes associated with wheezing… which I guess is a no-no for

chronic asthmatics like myself?)

So, reading your post about Pravachol use

for high blood pressure… it just made me curious, that’s all.

P.S. for the record, Jim hasn’t

noticed higher blood pressure since his transplant… but he has

experienced weight gain & far more “problematic” post-tx

issues, such as recurrent malignant melanomas… we try & stay ahead of

each and every one of those, knock on wood!!!
