Hi Angel1,
I am not on Lexapro, but I am on Celexa. Since they are similar, I thought I'd mention that it caused my blood pressure to rise as well.
The only way I was able to continue on the Celexa was to use a beta blocker every day. I've been taking Inderal LA, and it helps tremendously. Now I can take the Celexa without any problems.
You may want to ask your doctor about a beta blocker.
