took my bp meds at 9:00 and pressure is still on the rise. is now 164/110. and, i feel dizzy, ears ringing, and blurry vision. i had a bad trip to the er and they made it go too low, and a whole set of other problems with that, to say the least.
now, i don't know what to do though. i take norvasc 5 mg and toprol 50 mg. 2 times a day. along with 1/2 a toprol in the middle of the day...still, bp will not stabilize!
to top it off, my husband is out of town now too...

dr. called back and said to take one more norvasc and relax...if headache continues or gets worse, then go to the er.
my problem is this has been going on for 8 days now, and still not stable!!! up and down, just not anywhere near stable!

i would call the e.r. first and tell them the situation and ask if they think you need to be seen.

The ER is better than staying at home and doing nothing. The doctor do know what they are doing but with all the meds sometimes it is hard to cope with. My dad has gone through this so I know. The stories he has would twist your mind but without doctors he wouldn't be here today.

is there a neighbor or friend or family to take you to the ER. You could pass out! or call 911 for an ambulance. You could have a stroke.
