49 yoa, 5' 10" 170, exercise four days a week, family history of blood pressure, mother, sisters, brother, family history of stroke (mother).
1st BP med was a sledge hammer Azor 5/20 once daily dropped my pressure so low I could barely stay vertical or awake if not vertical...lol
2nd BP med (on it for several months now) is Diovan 80mg once daily (they do not make this dose so I have to chop 160's in half, I get two months for one months cost) this one works well for me, I do not have problems staying awake or feeling tired.
