You were fortunate your blood pressure stabilized.
I never had high blood pressure before zytiga. Now, Even though I stopped taking it three years ago, I have to take three different blood pressure medicines twice a day. Losartan, Diltiazem and metoprolol. My BP is not high at all anymore, but my cardiologist doesn’t want me to cut back more than having reduced the losartan by half.

@jeffmarc When my oncologist terminated my ADT, he immediately terminated the Losartan as well. As you can see, my BP spiked a few months after until everything settled down. I think I should have waited a couple months before stopping the Losartan:
