Thanks for posting your question danielle. It is a bit difficukt to tell waht might be happening with you and your health. You should really consult your doctor again to see what she thinks is best for you.

In the meantime, maybe you'd like to read our materials on the Basics of High Blood Pressure as well as the Causes/Risk Factors and Treatment.

Hope this helps and all the best, sue
