My BP now goes up, when I drink alcohol.
My PN started with alcohol as one of the contributing factors.
I've always had a high normal BP reading, so it doesn't take much
to tip the scales over to hypertension.
I was at 130/86 or so- normally. then I went to 146/92-94-96
and was put on BP meds.
On meds it is now 130/72
