Nicholas, It would help to know how high your blood pressure is.  DB lady had the right answers for you, but depending on the numbers, it might be better to see a doctor, if you haven't, to see whether you should be on medicine UNTIL you can take the steps in DB Lady's post.  If you don't have a monitor, you might consider getting one.  They are very reasonable, and a great way to track your pressure for future visits to the doctor.  It will show him when you can stop the medicines.  High blood pressure is nothing to play with.  It can cause other medical problems, such as an enlarged heart from strain on your body.Good health to you!

Sometimes we put up walls not to keep people out, but to see who cares enough to break them down.

You can lower blood pressure naturally by eating less sodium, exercising more (aerobics), eating foods that lower blood pressure such as celery. You may also use natural diuretics for high blood pressure which are used frequently to also manage high blood pressure .
