Struggling with high blood pressure with 4th treatment. Taking a 2 week break. Anyone else had this side effect?

Yes. He was able to treat Friday. The BP is still high but came down enough 😊

@nancyhafer, it sounds like @beth1952's husband had similar issues on Avastin (bevacizumab). Has the 2 week break helped? Will he resume treatment and the care team continue to monitor his heart health?

My husband had to go on blood pressure medication from Avastin. It is under control now.
