In Reply to: what to do about HBP posted by Amy on December 10, 2000 at 13:19:10:

: My fiance who is 33 has had very high blood pressure for sometime. I am american, but we live in England and i have not been happy with his treatment here. He has an appointment in the USA in 2 weeks. I wanted to educate ourselves on the various medical options before seeing the doctor. Is there a prefered or better drug to take? Is sweating on the head and forehead a symptom of HBP? Please help us learn more.

Supplementing my original response, another possibility for the sweating could be an overactive thyroid.
