re: BC pills causing elevated Blood Pressure, anyone else have this? Jan. 13th, 2007 10:23pm
Hey Shelba_doo, I am hypermobile too, especially in my shoulders, I can hold my hands together and bring my hands clear from the front of me over my head to the back of me, really freaks people out. Funny thing cause that is one of the questions they asked me at NIH when we went there for a study. I have 2 nephews that are the same, but thats it in our family as far as I know.
I can't answer you blood pressure question, other than to say my mom has high bp too. I hardly took bc ills when I was younger because they gave me headaches and made my legs cramp. Never knew why. So what symptoms are you still having after being on cortef for that long?
Can I ask you how much Cortef you are taking and at what times of the day? I am glad you found this board too. You will learn so much, much more than the docs will ever tell you. :o) Good luck and take care.
