> I once had chinese food -had a bp of about 200/120 if my home unit was getting an accurate reading. I took the beta blocker Lopressor at 100mg and reclined on my bed. My bp returned to normal after about 20 minutes. Perhaps not the ideal course of action but it worked out for me.
I've been worried about Chinese food. Did you just eat the wrong thing at a restaurant or is it impossible to know if something is going to be ok when eating Chineses food? I'm worried because they may use old stock in making it (not to mention the soy sauce that might be in it).(Sounds like you did the right thing for it.)
