Here is a response I posted a while back about what happened to a friend of mine.  Just goes to show how uneducated allopathic medicine really has become:

I had a friend a while back that had the same problem.  The doctor had put her on ACE inhibitor since each time she went to the doctor her blood pressure would go up.  He totally ignored the fact that her blood pressure readings at home were all normal.  He started her at 2.5mg, then went up to 5mg, then 10mg, and finally 20mg despite not having consistent high blood pressure.  She ended up stroking when she went to bed one night and the drug bottomed out her blood pressure.  When they found her in the morning they took her blood pressure.  It would go extremely high, around 300/200 then a few minutes later it would drop extremely low around 60/40.  Then it would go back up, then back down.  The 5 doctors on her case at the hospital could not figure out why her blood pressure was doing this, so I sat down and wrote them a letter to explain it to them.  The drug was forcing her blood pressure down dangerously low.  When this happened her adrenal glands would over react and would over secrete too much epinephrine (adrenaline) to get the blood pressure back up.  The over reaction though lead to an abnormally high blood pressure.  So the adrenals would respond by stopping the epinephrine release and the drug would bottom out her blood pressure and the whole cycle would start over again.  I told them that the clue of what was going on was in her pulse, which was 125.  I told them out of all the things that would raise blood pressure (epinephrine, sodium, insulin, calcium, angiotensin...) that the only things that would also raise the pulse that high, along with the blood pressure, was epinephrine.  And I recommended a beta blocker rather than an ACE inhibitor to control the epinephrine release. I gave the letter to the family who took it to one of the doctors.  She got so mad that she threw the letter back at them.  And she told them that with her pulse being that LOW that a beta blocker would kill her.  I think that doctor needs to go back to medical school if she thinks 125 is a low pulse rate when the medical community calls it tachycardia, which is an excessive heart rate.  Anyway, she must have consulted with the other doctors on the case since the next day they put the patient on a beta blocker, which solved the problem.  Ignorance may be bliss, but it can be deadly in medicine!!!
