ER Visit
My 25 yr old son went to the ER the night before last with stomach pain and high blood pressure. He got extremely anxious about the way he was feeling and when he got there his bp was 164/101. He’s been taking finasteride and minoxidil for hair loss but has noticed some side effects and has decided to stop those – He said when he urinates, it sometimes stops and starts and doesn’t feel like he completely finishes. So that was one thing he was already nervous about, then he started having stomach pain and pressure which made his anxiousness worse. They did a CT in the ER and his colon is extremely backed up. Of course the doctor told him to get some Miralax and didn’t seem too worried about his BP but told him to keep a record of it. I knew this day was coming – he’s not a great eater – basically meat, bread and cheese with a few green beans or brussel sprouts on occasion. I’ve searched the protocol for constipation but is there anything he can do for some immediate relief? Also, I need to send him something that isn’t too many steps so that he’ll stick with it. I was thinking Essentialzyme and ICP? Does he need to do Comfortone? Also, should he start Life9 or the Daily Prebiotic Fiber as well? Thoughts on the high bp? He took it today and it was 133/82. Thanks!!

Hi Chalise,
There seems to be multiple factors here, but I think this lesson would be a great starting point to address the majority of what you mentioned. Of course diet is very important, keto is great and I have more information on it in the course section. https://tribe.thewarriorcenter.com/lessons/high-blood-pressure/
