Just an update since my initial post in 2015: my blood pressure finally normalized after getting my hematocrit under control by phlebotomies but it took a couple of months to stabilize. I ate more vegetables and drank fresh ginger lemon tea each night during the process as many recommended to treat high blood pressure.
