high blood pressure question

Do you guys that use AAS get overly concerned when your BP goes high? Do you worry about it at all?

Just did a bit of reading on this crug, I wonder, does it help make you sleep better if you take it at night as well as dropping your BP? I've always had a hard time falilng asleep, and my bp is a bit high (was low before I started using AAS), might have to give that a try. What's the worst that could happen, a lower blood pressure...

Your BP is just fine, don't worry about it.

the diastolic is low which is the number you should worry about, as it represents intravascular resistance when your heart is inbetween contraction, the systole top number could just indicate a strong ejection or athletes heart.

Of course steroids increases sodium and potasium retention so BP may get a little elevated due to that but yours isn't really out of control.

190/90 I would worry about.

cheers.
