[QUOTE="GreenMachineX, post: 220934, member: 15245"] When I'm in panic or anxiety mode, I don't bother checking pulse or blood pressure anymore as I know it'll be ridiculous...bp could be up to 160-170/90-100. Heart rate usually doesn't go higher than 80-90 of I'm sitting down during an attack. But, when I'm done, my BP has been 120's over 80 without medication recently. I really don't understand this part though. When I was on eod or twice per week protocol, and trough free T was between 105 to 115, my blood pressure was 140/80 even while on 40mg telmisartan. When I was on 10mg daily, trough free T was 155, top of range, but blood pressure was 115/75 on telmisartan, but I had anxiety all day long, then couldn't sleep at night. It was bad. And in all 3 of those situations, I was on each protocol for at least 3 months. So, daily protocol has definitely had a positive effect on blood pressure. As I brought daily dose down to 5mg, I stopped taking telmisartan because my BP was going down to 110/59 and I was getting postural hypotension and dizzy spells. But, like you said regarding dose, if I was already too high free t, and slight adjustments up at all may have just kept sending me overboard. After looking back at my labs just now, I wonder what 3 months at a trough free test of 105 would feel like, since I was pretty stable at that trough on EOD and twice per week. 25mg EOD - 115 Trough free test - felt pretty stable, some anxiety, irritability and mild sleep disturbances 50mg twice per week - 105 trough free test - pretty stable, some anxiety and sleep disturbances 5mg daily - 105 trough free test (only 2 weeks and just dropped from 7mg for a month and 10mg for 4 months before that), by no means stable [/QUOTE]
