[QUOTE="shltn, post: 192369, member: 17383"] Thank you very much for the thoughtful reply! Like you, genetics definitely play a role for me as well; on my father's side there has been a long, long history of heart problems, strokes, high blood pressure, etc. and my BP has always ran on the high(er) side. Now I think I have compounded the issue by gaining weight, not eating as I should and just getting older doesn't help. Obviously, I need to get my diet and exercise in order but I also know that it may take me a while to get to that point so I'd rather avoid the "wear and tear" on my body in the meantime and I can always come off of the meds later - if possible. I'm glad to hear that Lisinopril doesn't have those negative effects on everyone as I may end up back on it once I give the Losartan a chance to work. Here is a study on the Lisinopril for anyone who is curious: [URL="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9877521/"]Lisinopril decreases plasma free testosterone in male hypertensive patients and increases sex hormone binding globulin in female hypertensive patients - PubMed[/URL] [/QUOTE]
