Ask the doctor.  After being diagnosed with high blood pressure several years ago, I started taking diltiazem and Atacand.  The results were good, giving me an average blood pressure of 110/65.  I recently developed gastroenteritis and aspiration pneumonia.  While I was in the hospital, my blood pressure got so low I was told to stop taking these medications.  I have been off them since, and my blood pressure has remained normal, averaging 105/65.  How can this be?  Will high blood pressure return?
