by vila, 0 replies, updated about 1 year ago.Hi everyone. First time I've posted. I'm hoping for some kind of feedback or others with a similar experience. The Doctor put me on Toprol xl 50 mg some time last year and then a few months later the pharmacist changed it to the generic metoprolol succinate which seemed fine. So I've been taking metoprolol succinate 50 mg since August last year along with tekturna 300 mg just fine. Just last month I tried the mail order to save money on the metoprolol. I thought it was strange the pill was shaped differe...

by lisa39, 0 replies, updated about 1 year ago.Hello, I have always had phenominal BP, 110/70. In the last 4 months (around the time I opened a pizza shop, much stress) my BP has shot up to around 170/105. I have also been bleeding 80% of the time for the last 6 months.

Blood pressure is the force of your blood pushing against the walls of your arteries. Each time your heart beats, it pumps out blood into the arteries. Your blood pressure is highest when your heart beats, pumping the blood. This is called systolic pressure. When your heart is at rest, between beats, your blood pressure falls. This is the diastolic pressure. Your blood pressure reading uses these two numbers, the systolic and diastolic pressures. Usually they are written one above or before the other. A reading of 120/80 or lower is normal blood pressure 140/90 or higher is high blood pressure 120 and 139 for the top number, or between 80 and 89 for the bottom number is prehypertension High blood pressure usually has no symptoms, but it can cause serious problems such as stroke , heart failure , heart attack and kidney failure . You can control high blood pressure through healthy lifestyle habits and taking medicines, if needed.
