Since I started taking nardil, my BP has sat around 125/85 (which is very pleasing, as i had high blood pressure before)
Last night I began to feel extremely dizzy, and decided to take my blood pressure (I have an old BP monitor stuck in the back of a cupboard from when I was first diagnosed with HBP)
Took it, and it was 160/100
My food intake for the day was
2 slices raisin toast and a coffee for breakfast
ham and tomato sandwhich and a pepsi max for lunch
latte and a chocolate bar (50g) after work
lamb curry and a glass of red wine for dinner
The only drugs i had taken other than my usual regimen were 2 ibuprofen for a tension headache
Took my BP again this morning and it was back to 125/85 (and the diziness was gone)
Cant see what the hell could have caused the reaction, but also cant see what might have made my BP spike like that apart from a tyramine reaction.
Oh well, atleast I lived to tell the tale
