I just heard from Dr.Scott,he said no Shocked

molly should not be on b/p medication unless absolutely nessasary.He suggested monitering for a while. He wants her tested for renal artery stenosis as referenced by moms on this page. molly s b/p since being home has been 117/73. If i had followed her gps advice and gave her dioavan it could have killed her by lowering it too much and having no blood flow to the brain leading to a massive stroke Angry

.
thank heaven for this site and mothers intuition Grin
