Hi! I'm new here, but have read and re-read most of the threads on this forum. I have hypertension (and mild emphysema BTW). My MD had a hard time bringing my BP down over the last year. Well, I got my first e-cig (njoy) yesterday and, since I measure my BP a couple of times a day, I was startled that my BP went from 142/85 in the am taking a B-line down to 108/60.
Does anyone else measure BP daily? Anybody else experience that? I'm going to see the nurse at my clinic tomorrow to double-check my monitor and also double-check what happens to my BP both before I smoke my e-cig and a half-hour after I smoke it.
Lowering my BP is great, but hey, 108/60 after one day's use? I'm nervous about how low it will go if I continue.
Thanks for all the great info here!!!!! And thanks for any input you all might have!
