I find my hypertension very unstable after I became T2 diabetic . My
diabetes is very much on the control with Metformin - twice daily .
Recently I was advised 1500 grams of calcium after bone density scan .
I find my BP is normal in the mornings and slowly builds up during
afternoon and after my dinner it reduces back to near normal levels .
What is this strange phenomenon due to ?

Any help and suggestions are welcome .

Kam

Kam,
I suggest that you copy and post your message in this newsgroup:
misc.health.diabetes
I also suggest that you read this book since it explains in detail
how the kidneys work.

"Coping With Kidney Disease--A 12 Step Program to Help You Avoid Dialysis"
by Mackenzie Walser, M.D. (kidney specialist)

Those people at the diabetes newsgroup might be able to tell you about
other books that could help you.

What are your diet and activity like? Do you eat or supplement for
adequate magnesium and potassium? How long have you been taking metformin?

Kam,
Salt has major effect on blood pressure. Try becoming a total vegetarian
for a week--no eggs, cheese or dairy products. Eat lots of almonds (for
protein) or buy protein powder that has a very low sodium (salt) content
such as
Mixed Berry Rice Protein. After you do that, measure your blood pressure
during the last two days of the week to see if the experiment was a
success or failure.
You should also visit a health food store and buy a bottle of Mineral Capsules.
You should also ask these questions to your doctor.
