What were the supplements from your acupuncturist?
Have you had your vitamin D (25-hydroxy) blood levels tested? 4000 IUs isn't always enough.
You're not taking vitamin K/K2? You need it to keep your arteries from calcifying. Arteries have to expand and contract to keep control of blood pressure, and hardened arteries can't do this, so blood pressure goes up.
I am no longer taking that
I will probabaly up it to 10,000 now
I tried this in the past, didn't have any effect
but that my blood sugar may be pre diabetic,

Do you eat processed foods with trans fats? If so, a cell membrane repair process could be clogging your vitamin C transporters through cell membranes (and also keeping your blood sugar high.)

Have you been on antibiotics? The intestinal flora will produce vitamin K, but if they die off, you will have to a) take probiotics, b) eat a lot of leafy green vegetables, and/or c) supplement with vitamin K (esp. k2).
But Jacquie is correct. My understanding of blood pressure is that it is a gauge to narrowing of the arteries, as a small narrowing can cause an exponential increase in BP. If arteries cannot expand, say because there are calcium deposits, your blood pressure will read like yours. And the only way our experience shows to reduce is vitamin K (remember the story of the President of Tower labs - clear arteries but high BP until he added vitamin K, but his next reading was a year later.)
I would also consider different/better brands of Omega/3s and Magnesium and perhaps increasing the dosage.
Consider transdermal magnesium oil.BaronZemo wrote:...tried all kinds of magnesium can't take anymore otherwise loose stools, had no effect on bp
