The last time I took my Lisinopril and HCTZ was Tuesday (the day prior to surgery). Post-op in the hospital every time they took my blood pressure, it was respectable and very close to normal. I had asked if they were giving me my blood pressure meds and they said no - they hadn't given me anything because my vitals were strong. Say what??! So, being a bit overly cautious with my new gogo gadget toy tummy, I talked to my general MD today who asked me to come in ... and ... *drum roll!!* she took me completely off all my blood pressure meds!! Here I am 2 days post-op and already kicking meds !!! The only requirement she gave me was to check my BP a couple times a day and if it goes up then to only take 1/2 tablet. I'm so excited to see that happen so quickly!!

That's great news! Go u!!!

I think we had surgery same day (13th?) great to hear others are doing so well

I'm still in hospital, go home today or tomoz am drinking juice & walking around etc. just bored! Haha

Isn't it amazing how quickly you were able to get off those BP meds? Such a great decision to make. CONGRATS and welcome to the BIG LOSER'S BENCH! What a great start.

Thanks! I was pretty happy and surprised too - totally digging it!
