Yes, I can relate. After Covid my BP became very high like yours. Never had high BP in my life. Drs. have tried 5 different meds. I now wear a Clonidine patch for 7 days and change it on the 7th day. Also take a Clonidine pill when it spikes too high. Just recently after wearing a Zio patch found out I have Arrythmia. This has been going on for 2 years. I feel like I am going crazy. I see my cardiologist Dec. 16th to discus options. I will try to keep in touch with you. As I have said before this is an evil virus!

Good morning..did you have the ZIO patch? I have one on now and it comes off on the 19th. This is all too frustrating. My primary has me taking 100 mgs of Lorsartan. After I take it , it puts me to sleep. I am so out , that I have to take it in the evening. What does the Clonidine patch do for you? This has been going on for several years , I had Covid last year at this time and fainted twice, once in the driveway and hit my head on the pavement resulting in a concussion , a TBI and broken nose, then in June it happened at work injuring my leg, but of course they know I have this long covid, so I did not get any work comp. My blood pressure is out of control, seen different doctors , had tests but nothing works for me. We will see if the zio comes up with anything. Thanks for reaching out to me. This is a evil virus. Please keep in touch.
