I have untreated high blood pressure (usually around 144/99). I am taking my blood pressure each day to monitor the situation and establish what level I am at. I know I need to go on medication, but I want a medication that will have few side effects. I am particularly concerned about sexual side effects and I would still like to be able to have a couple drinks now and again.
I always have to take blood pressure twice at doctors visits because at the begining its always really high. The second time they take it is still really high though.
How do I make my blood pressure go down and calm my nerves?

Why is blood pressure more important than flow. For instance, you can have a lot of blood that will flow through an artery, but that is not good enough, it must also be a certain pressure. Indeed pressure is almost more important than the absolute amount of blood that flows. Can anyone explain why this is true?
Folks in our town believe that eating amorgoso or ampalaya would make blood pressure high, that is why they recommend it to anemic people. Is this true?
I am on high blood pressure medication and I am wondering can I still become an airline pilot if my blood pressure is under control?
For my final science project, I am taking the blood pressure of 6 students, three males, and three females. I hope to conclude whether the students blood pressure is higher in the morning before school, or after school in the afternoon. I made a prediction that it will be higher after school, when they are relieved that the day is over.
My only issue is, that I have to tell how it applies to science. Does anyone have any idea of how blood pressure would apply to science?
My mom has essential high blood pressure sometimes reaching over the 200/160 mark. As her blood pressure has been high for a while she has an enlarged right ventricle which will and is leading to CHF. Her breathing is already heavy. Her doctor has given her Betaloc, Plendil, Inhibace, Dosan, Cartia a blood thinner, Lipex for high cholesterol and Quinine for night cramps. She’s in her early 70’s and she complains of head aches, extreme fatigue and loss of energy. She has increasing dark circles around her eyes as if she hasn’t slept in months with shortness of breath like she’s gasping for air. I would like her to try natural remedies because these synthetic drugs don’t appear to be doing much for her overall health. Can anyone advise some really good and effective natural remedies to treat both high blood pressure and CHF? I know Celery is good for lowering blood pressure.
