Guest guest Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 As we age, our blood pressure tends to go a little higher. Also, watch your salt intake, and if you tend to be heavy, that can contribute also.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Hi I can't imagine blaming Gleevec for something that occured 9 years after the fact. If Gleevec was the cause of your blood pressure, don't you think it would have shown up before 9 years?
