I’ve been on BP meds for over a month, all has gone well. BP in the 115/70s range typically. I’ve felt great.

Today I worked out, which isn’t unusual but my HR went into the 130s which is higher than it has been lately at the gym (beta blocker seemed to limit it). Now my BP is around 150/90s today, and HR is 100-110. I have some anxiety and stress which is probably compounding it all, but has anyone had random “bad” days like this? It’s weird to see the increase like this when everything has been fine otherwise.

Has anyone found that their sleeping position has changed since starting BP medication? I was always a side or stomach sleeper, and always go to sleep in one of those positions, but am now waking up sleeping on my back nearly every morning. Has anyone had something similar happen? So strange!
