    I ditched the Ramipril Lisa, I was crippled with leg and feet pain. Not taking anything now, BP is more or less borderline.

      I’m decided to do the same, I’m hoping the weight will disappear as quick as it went on! Thanks for reply

      Good luck Lisa, you’ll probably notice a drop in blood pressure when the weight comes off, I’m badly needing to lose some weight, easier said than done lol 😆👍.
