High Blood Pressure- You Still Have That??? by Inmate #1

Here's how incompetent Carswell is. I self surrendered on blood pressure medicine called Valsartan. Upon entering, that medication was changed by the Physician's Assistant to Losartan. The Losartan shot my blood pressure from readings around 130 or 140 to regular readings ABOVE 160. The doctor tried to solve the issue by DOUBLING the dosage of the Losartan. The increased dose INCREASED my high blood pressure to the 170 to 180 range.

The doctor then put in to change my prescription back to the Valsartan I was taking pre imprisonment. Some jackass in Washington decided NOT to approve that change, When I went to pickup this month's medication, I now have NO blood pressure medicine.

You read that correct, ALL my blood pressure medicine has been DISCONTINUED as of April 10th, 2018. Discontinuing my medication doesn't change my medical condition. I still have high blood pressure. My father died of a massive stroke at 42 due to high blood pressure and I am 44. WTF kind of medical care is this except to try and kill people???  How can a medical care facility be so stupid and incompetent???
