What Causes High Blood Pressure After Taking Ceruvin-A And Rozat-F?
60 yrs old hardworking diabetic, started tribet 2 since 3 months. contracted hiv thru blood transfusion.diagnosed in may 2011.on Viraday since then. CD4 increased above 200 about 2 months back. wife passed away in may 2011 and also lost grandchild 2 days later during delivery. I suffered a shock (may be a stroke) and was not able to focus properly and admitted to hospital for 2 days in may 2011. Since then diagonosed with small clots in brain (right occipital lobe) thru brain mri since feeling numbness in left half of body. now taking ceruvin A, rozat f. 25% improvement. but after starting ceruvin A and rozat F for 2 weeks i am now suddenly suffering from high blood pressure 190/100,180/100 etc. I did not have high bp.taking staml 5 and losar h once in morning. What could have caused high BP? (Ceruvin A , Rozat f ????) Whats your advice please?
Ceruvin A and Rozat f that you use for preventing further blood clot and stroke does not increase your blood pressure . In fact many studies show that they reduce blood pressure.
There are 3 possibilities to your recent rise in blood pressure 1. A new onset renal failure either dur to HIV or blood clots in your renal artery or vein. You will need to do bloods for creatinine and urinalysis and also doppler of renal artery and vein.
2. There could be a new valvular heart problem that comes with age called aortic stenosis so you will need to evaluated by physician for the same . He/She may want to do Echocardiography for the same.
3. There is also a possibility that your blood vessels have become stiff with age called arteriosclerosis and thus causing hypertension.
While you will need to continue your medications you will also need evaluation to find the cause for the same.
Will be happy to review further .
