I have been on BP medicine since I was 24 and took Salagen during treatment and for two years after. It had no effect on MY BP whatsoever. Maybe the stress of his treatment is doing it. It is no fun being strapped to a table with a mask on your face every day. Do you know what his BP used to be BEFORE he got this diagnosis? If he is like my husband, he probably hasn't seen a doctor in years. Here's hoping this is radiation side effects.
Take care,
Eileen
