I appreciate your information. He is still having the spikes but only at night. I am wondering if he is nervous about it going up and that is making it go up. But last night at 9 it was 120 and then he took it at 12 when he got up for a bathroom trip and it's 200! So he had to take a clonidine. He is on a lot of medicine and is taking more at night. Thanks for your information. Joan

I am going through exactly the same thing. Pacemaker, taking clonidine. Blood pressure spikes at night. Occasionally it has happened during day to 220/110. I have recently been diagnosed with APHIB. Had 2 ablations and 2 shock treatments. Only took me out of APHIB for a few days. 83 years old. Otherwise good health however I take a lot of medications.
