Weed and high blood pressure

It was about a year ago when i had a cerebral brain hemorage. It was caused by lifting, taking suppliments (wayyy to much), and not breathing correctly. I have been put on medicine and my average bloodpressure is about 140/85.

SO my main question...

I love to smoke, but when i smoke i tend to feel a little weird and my blood will rush like niagra falls sometimes. SO i decided to take my bloodpressure while stoned. It read 170/90.

Should i go to the doctor and grab a higher dosage pill for bloodpressue?

Definately. Tell him, "at times" it gets up to XXX/XXX. Do it soon. :hippy:

I would be honest with the doctor about it. I have high blood pressure and take enalapril for it. My blood pressure doesn't go up when I smoke but my pulse will go up little.

while i was having my blood pressure taken at the doctor not too long ago, and it was a little high. they asked if i smoked pot at all, not in a rude way, so I told em the truth, and they said it was normal for heavy marijuana smokers :rastasmoke:

but since you have a pre-existing condition, they're probably going to tell you to knock the habit :/
