I am having a terrible time with high blood pressure, I have not been able to find a medication that I can take, the ac inhibitors work well, but I break out in a red rash on both arms. The other drugs including diurectics make my slow heart worse, right now it beats between 42 to 49 during day time. I am so tired and scared. I am a widow of 59. Ann

You need to be examined for underlying heart or endocrine condition, since you have very slow heart rate.
Long-standing hypertension can result in heart damage leading to abnormal heart rate.

Consult your cardiologist!

I truly sympathise. I have similar problems in that I cannot tolerate any BP medication (tried 10) I now have excruciating neuropathies in my feet and hands and hips. Pain killers only raise BP further. Also cannot function any more normally.Not getting much help from doctors, - all in my mind according to them - what would they know about the pain!
