Hi, Name is Pat. I have been on Hydrochlorothiazide for a couple of weeks because bp was very high. Have been through a very stressful ordeal, house fire, but was high prior. Just not as high. Was on celery seed supplement, weight was going down, then ordeal happened. Got on Propranolol which helped with accute anxiety at that time which has now supsided. Propranolol caused immediate weight gain and believe HCTZ is doing the same thing. Is the only drug I'm on, I am pretty active, eat healthy (really) and monitor my own BP, plus on multi vitamin for women, Ubiquinol, Magnesium - 400mg/day, fish oil. I want off this medication in a bad way. Doctor knows this and I would like your advice regarding relatively safe supplements to take instead of Hydro.... Thank you.
