Hi Bulldog,
Saw PDoc today and d/c'd the Nifedipine. I don't recommend that med btw unless for one time antidote. I took it for 11 days, not fun.
Anyway, he thought my med sensitivity could have caused the 3 hypertensives in a row. i've been low/normal BP last 11 days. Someone on the board did mention that can be a transient condition as your body adjusts.
So, in answer to your question, I'm back on Parnate, 30mg day as before, now I need to have antidote with me, no biggie, and I have to follow the old food restricts for a while, bummer!!! Small price to pay for possible remission. I'll eat spinach all day if thats what it takes. Really.
