high blood pressure in a yin person

Hi,

I have high blood pressure, but am pretty much a damp cold person. I have had

my spleen removed (2 years ago) and have been diagnosed as needing to build

blood and raise energy. It's been awhile since that diagnosis and I have gotten

some of my energy back. But what I don't get is the high blood pressure. I'm

on blood pressure meds. 40 mg of limbitrol a day. I accidentally missed two

days of meds this week and sent my bp soaring. Even though I took a pill the

morning after the second night of missing the meds and was back on track, my

blood pressure stayed up and I had a terrible headache. And irritability. I'm

not use to having irritability stuff. I don't like it. How do I deal with my

contradictory stuff?

I don't have a coating on my tongue...just a little whiteness that looks rooted.

I also was fighting a cold for a week before I forgot the bp meds...that is

probably part of it. Still have some lingering stuff. Mean cold/flu.

Thanks

Michelle
