Reducing Coreg and Diovan

[FixedAgain]

I found that my Hemoglobin, RBC and Hematocrit levels were high for reasons unrelated to my heart and got the green light to start reducing the 320 Diovan and 2 x 18.24 Coreg..but he's not gotten back to me on a schedule of it..

I don't see many members with similar experiences but thought to ask.

I'll post up how it goes after I see him next week.

I don't have high blood pressure btw...these meds were prescribed to help my heart get stronger...we didn't know at the time all the problems were from high Hematocrit, Hemoglobin and RBC's.

But I know this will take some time adjusting..just wondering on a timetable...

See no one has experience with this...I think the most important thing is not to put stress on the heart and check bp...Unfortunately, I have tried 3 different automatic BPmachines and none are that good...The current one is so bad it's worse than bad as it's always so high it just makes me nervous...and it's not like it can be calibrated as it seems to be all over the place. I just got an all manual one but need to learn it and it's maybe hard to learn on yourself...
