My BP has been mega up and down for a couple of years, but in the last 8/12 ive been seeing an endocrinologist to help me with it. My BP can be around 145/80 during the day but at night can be as high as 235/118. Yep mega High. Ive been haveing day/night studies conducted and that has shown that my sympathetic nervous system is going crazy causing my para sympathetic nervous system to flat line ( not work at all). It also increases my Aldosterone levels to rise ( they have been 5 times normal ). Ive had my adrenal glands checked for tumors etc, NAD. Only other thing going on is i do Urinate large volumns at night compared to during the day.
Solution so far is Spironlactone, Amilodapine and Irbesartan concoction.
Honestly, i dont think the introduction of Irbesartan has done anything. But we are working on it
My Pulse was also high at night sitting between 100 and 145 BPM while i slept.
Only other symptoms of note was Breathlessness with little exhertion, fatigue, and palpitations. These were all intermittant.
BP is still a little on the high side Around 180/100 at night, but we are working on it. These levels certainly dont see me rushing off to the ER though.
