[ladybird64]

I take them and have had no side effects..I hate taking medication too.

[nomorepanic]

I am on them too and no side-effects.

I take mine just before I go to bed in case they lower the blood pressure too much.

i fear taking all tablets apart from my ramipril and paracetamol,i had to take anti histamines few weeks back,and i posted on here before about what a nbightmare that was,pacing the kitchen plucking up courage to take them ,then watching the clock for about 30 minbs see if i was going to have a reaction,this was unless i was busy and wasnt thinking about it

Well the 97 is high. It depends on other readings as well I guess

yes I hate taking medication. I had to start on some water tablets a month ago, took them and was waiting for something to happen - but it never did lol

yes its fairly high but given the other number i was just surprised that he would be put on medication.

Maybe the other readings were higher.

love mandie x
