August 10, 2009 @ 5:17 pmMy Dr does listen to me but I think she has given up on me too Her latest cooment was “You are between a rock and a hard place “regarding the side effects of my medication which doesnt appear to be working as well as she would like

It is time for you to talk to somebody who can show you that there are various options for treating high blood pressure. Giving somebody a drug to “treat” blood pressure(for the rest of their natural life) is like giving somebody endless credit they can ill afford to pay back. Eventually you pay the ultimate price.
Go to http://www.naturopath.org.nz and look for a naturopath who should be able to assist, make a few enquiries and you will find somebody who can listen to you and help you without making you feel like a hypochondriac!
Most cases of blood pressure are stress driven, especially the “essential” hypertension where no known cause is established. Weight may also be at the heart of this problem, either way you need to look for a solution and not have to feel poisoned because your doctor “can’t be bothered”.
Regards,
Eric Bakker ND

Try relaxation – In a study led reported in 1995 in the journal Hypertension, meditation was compared with progressive muscle relaxation as a means of controlling stress in patients high blood pressure. Of the 197 men and women (out of 213) who completed the screening, the reductions in blood pressure in the meditation group were significantly greater than those in the progressive muscle relaxation group. Meditation reduced systolic blood pressure by more than 10 points and diastolic pressure by more than 6 points (compared with a 5 point reduction for systolic and a 3 point fall for diastolic with progressive muscle relaxation).
Read my article on relaxation. You will find that Systolic BP will drop more significantly with relaxation that diastolic,and there are many ways you can relax. I can recmend a combination of meditation and other relaxation techniques for an even better result. Tai chi is another good option. I have seen many patients reduce their BP without drugs, or using a greatly reduced drug regime when combined with meditation.
Eric
