Re: Great post + "normal bp" :) Re: my experience with cayenne powder today ..

Hey Uny


sorry it took a while to answer your post but I just got back from outta town last night and just getting round to checking everything ..lol.

well for me I feel good when my bp is around 115/75 and when I have anxiety then it always goes up and I can tell it goes up or vice versa ...

I used to be on 300mg of Diovan for high bp and that was the highest dose they could give

since I got off the benzos it has been under control except when I have anxiety of course or my nerves are tore up ..

the highest it has been was 196/110 and nerves were way outta control and I ended up at the ER when I took the Antibiotic that time ......see thats the reaction I get when I take meds or herbs that my body doesnt agree with and thats my way of being able to tell it ...it normally starts out with extreme dizziness and rise of bp which I know will cause the dizziness ..my nerves are easily excited still and I am quick to jump to conclusions at times because of it so I think its safe to say that I am not healed from the benzos by any means ..I get panicky at the least little things sometimes and I wish I wasnt like that either ..

anytime I go into a docs office for whatever reason they tell me my bp is high and they write it on my chart !! I tell them that docs offices make me nervous hence the high bp and that is no lie either they do ! LOL ..but anyways thats one of the reasons I cant get insurance coverage either ... but when I check it here at home under normal calm circumstances its always normal ...

but definately the anxiety comes first then the high bp along with it .. then I then take appropriate actions to get both under control if I can ... since I have been having problems with my neck and arm now when I get anxiety I lose all control over my left arm too!! and that in itself is enough to panic me even more ..when I get like that I have to do something to bring things under control ..fear of what might happen always gets me ..now I know a panic attack in itself will not harm you and is just like a good workout but that doesnt stop the sensations that I feel and new ones that pop up and I never know what they will be and thats scary too..
since I come from a long line of mental illness in my family that doesnt help none ..my whole family has bad nerves and sometimes I feel like I am doomed ..but I do what I can naturally to help overcome the situation and go on with my life ..I try to stay away from my triggers too as I feel that is important but it also keeps me from trying new things ..

I used to be the calmest easy goin person anyone would ever wanna meet but after the car wreck all that changed ! I wish I could have my old life back as I miss it very much ..no allergies ,no reactions ,just a good life

anyways hope this helps ya to understand my situation here a little better
