Hi I have recently had spine surgery, whilst in Hospital I had some pretty bad reactions to pain relief and was referred to an excellent general medicine specialist, who amongst other things was disappointed at my BP treatment at the time I was perscribed Bisoprolol 1 x 5mg Amlodipine 1x10mg. I had not been given this medication whilst I was in hospital as my blood pressure had been generally good. I had protein in my urine at pre admission an HBA1C of 7, Cholesterol 5. I take 500mg x 2 per day metfartin.
He explained I should be protecting my kidneys and wrote to my GP advising I was placed on Both Statins and Amlodipine was replaced with Ramipril type drug. he added that my target blood pressure is 130/80.
I have since been taking Bisoprolol 1 x 5mg, Amlodipine 1x5mg, and Ramipril 1x5mg.
My BP daytime has been what I would call low I regularly have 100/76 the lowest I have recorded is 96/72 average is 108/76 My Last HBA1C 6.3, my cholesterol was 4.9, My real problem is I have been getting blinding headaches, can low BP give me these blinding headaches ?
