Unvaccinated. She’s been diagnosed with high blood pressure and AAA. The AAA is tiny but it freaks us all out. She’s trying hard to lower her blood pressure through medicine and diet but she’s getting so anxious over it that it’s not coming down quickly enough for her. She’s been on a low dose for 3 weeks now.
She’s my best friend and I’m doing all I can to help her but I hate seeing her constantly stressed and worried.
Please pray for her health and calmness, and for her upcoming doctor appointment to go well. And if she has to get blood drawn please pray that there is nothing bad in the results. We don’t go to doctors much so it’s scary all around.
She’s a prayer warrior and has been busting her butt trying to redpill anyone she can.
Thank you, frens. I love you all.
Heavenly Father we love you so much. We pray over healmehealme's mother today who is experiencing high blood pressure and AAA. Look after her and heal her body from all that may cause harm. Let her rest solely in your arms so she can return back from this better than ever, ready to do the work u have put before us all. Let them feel the love we are sending there way. In Jesus Christ glorious name amen
Amen!
Amen!
Amen!
Thank you very much for the thoughtful prayer!
Amen
I have high blood pressure and learning piano helps, as well as reducing carbs and adding psyllum husks to my pastries (almond/erythritol based).
But then I came to share a prayer:
« Holy Father, bless op and his beloved Mum with serenity and judgement to reduce their anxiety. Make them know You are with them in this very moment and let them achieve the inner peace of mind their bodies need to earn the calm they crave. »
Amen beautiful prayer fren. Keep it up Prayer warrior. God bless u. JESUS CHRIST IS KING
She’s done a great job lowering her carbs already. She jumped straight into dieting and eating better.
Thank you so much for the prayer. My Mom said thank you too. :)
Isaiah 41:10
10 So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Prayers for your mother and you, fren.
Thank you so much :)
Lord you know our hearts and thoughts and if a Sister or Brother is hurting or worried, what a privilege it is that we can lay this all at your feet.
Right now we ask that you place your healing hands upon this dear Mother. She needs you now and her condition only escalates when she is anxious. Allow her to be still and know that you are her God - the Creator who set the stars, moon and sun in the Great expanse of sky and that knows how many grains of sand that are on all the beaches! What a wonderful Creator that allows us to lay our needs at His feet! Calm her Lord. May she recover completely and give thanks to You because her healing was from your Hands! Bless her Lord and bless her Daughter! I pray this in your precious Sons Name, Jesus Christ! Amen.
Amen. Wow powerful prayer fren. Keep it up prayer warrior. God bless. Much love
I’m so thankful that He saved Me. Times are hard and very difficult but He’s always there. I don’t know how many times His word From Hebrews 13:5 has always appeared when I needed Him most -
‘Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee’.
Once when we were dealing with an issue with Council, I was walking on our land (100 acres) which only we could access as at this stage as we had no road in. While we didn’t live on the land, we travelled 2 hours and lived during the week elsewhere, and camped in the early planning stages on the land. It was wet, I remember that clearly and we had a track thru the bush up to where we intended building. But we joined a beautiful church and they were our family and there were so many wonderful teachers of God’s Word there.
We were going thru a very difficult time with Council as they wanted more from us than what was required under their regulations. Anyway, as I was walking, and slipping in mud, a piece of torn paper blew onto my boot. On it we’re the words, ‘I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee’. I still have that muddy piece of paper that means so much to me. I asked at our little fellowship and none had visited. So He will never leave us, even in these difficult times and my hope is for a mighty move of God around this frightened world.
I’m sure you have seen this video. We don’t know whether 45 will be back in the Oval Office, but God’s timing is perfect and we must trust Him to bring us thru. God Bless.

Prayers for your wonderful mother. And prayers for your strength and your peace and clarity of mind.
I have crippling anxiety and high blood pressure. I use turmeric and curcumin. I've heard apple cider vinegar works wonders but I just can't get myself to take it. Also watch caffeine intake. For the anxiety I do mindless, repetitive tasks to keep me focused on something vs freaking out: Knit/crochet, solitaire, crossword puzzles, etc. Just keep it simple so there is no added stress.
Let her know that all of her frens here are praying for her. Sometimes it helps to know that people outside her immediate circle are praying. Please let us know how she is doing.
Thank you so much. You’re so sweet. :)
My mom definitely has anxiety. Normally it’s under control but since all this it’s been bad. And I’m like you and have crippling anxiety. She hasn’t had caffeine in decades, same for me. She used to love knitting and crochet but yarn is so expensive that we stopped. Even crossword puzzles are ridiculous these days.
I’ll look into the turmeric and curcumin to see if that’s something we can try, thank you :)
My mom also said thank you for the prayer and kindness. :)
I have intermittent high blood pressure, probably caused by medication I take to control migraine. If your mother hasn't had these labs already, have her cortisol levels checked. There are serum labs, 24-hour urine, and saliva labs. It's not uncommon for older patients to lose the PM "drop" in cortisol, which allows the melatonin to take over. This can cause lack of sleep.
Anyway, high cortisol can cause hypertension, as well as anxiety, etc. I have discovered that phosphatidylserine will moderate cortisol at night before bed. Some people take lower doses throughout the day, if overproduction of cortisol is an issue.
Best wishes.
She’s really worried about getting a blood test but we’ll keep an eye out for that if she has to. Thank you so much for the advice and kindness. :)
No apologies needed. I’m strongly considering it and very much appreciate the advice. Sincerely. :)
Myself & a good friend who needed to lower their blood pressure both found it in Vitamin K in a white box from Costco (I will need to find the brand for you).
Two weeks of that & we both ended up in normal range. It may be a nutritional deficit for us.
"Father in Heaven. Please help this daughter of your's to find what she needs to be healthy & put your spitit to work in healing her too. I ask this in the name of your son, Jesus Christ, Amen."
I too have high blood pressure. It took my doctor about 9 months to get mine under control. I find that it will elevate whenever I visit my doctor as anxiety will cause it to rise. I find that picking a picture or a sign or poster on the wall in the room and reading it or whatever while having your BP checked will give you a much better reading. It relaxes you and gives you something easier and more calming to concentrate on. Hope this helps.
Our Heavenly Father, We pray today for one of your beloved prayer warriors who always comes to the aid of others. Now it is her time Lord and so we pray that you help her with her Blood Pressure and other ailments that are causing her much stress and anxiety. We know you are the great Physician and Healer and we ask that you touch her now Lord and let her receive your healing. We ask that you keep her from all other ailments as we ask these things in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Thank you Lord for all things given. Amen.
Thank you so much for the wonderful prayer, kindness, and advice.
Her BP skyrockets at the doctor too. She’s tried reading and thinking of other things and just trying to get her mind off of it but her anxiety makes it so difficult. I’m the same way. It’s so tough, especially when you’re in an environment that you hate lol
You're welcome. I had anxiety once for about 3 years after having miscarried 2 children at the age of 21. I lost one in February and the other in December of 1981 which threw me into anxiety, panic attacks and depression. It is something I would not wish on my 'worst enemy.' However after 3 years its was as God told me, "I was me once; and I will be me again. I do on occasion have a rare anxiety attack, but now I know it for what it is and can 'nip it in the bud' so to speak before I ever take myself back to that period in my life. So now when I feel it coming on, I take some deep breaths and slow my breathing down; yes I used to hyperventilate with anxiety, and then I go find something to do or I simply look around the room I'm in and concentrate on what is there. This may not work for everyone, but it sure works for me. Again, I pray that God heals your mother and helps her rid herself of these anxiety attacks. Once she controls these; I believe she will do better at controlling her BP. God bless you both.
I am so, so sorry for what you had to go through. I'm glad you're doing better though.
My anxiety has been with me since I was very young. My first memory is of an anxiety attack. I've tried every trick in the book and none of them work for me. At least not long term. If anything, I've learned to do my best to cope with it but that's about it.
Thank you again for all of your kind words and help and prayers. God bless you as well. You're a wonderful person.
I will pray for your anxiety. I feel for you and what you are going through. It is a terrifying experience. I feel that God will heal you from it.
Thanks. I will go back and look. God bless.
I offer my prayers for her but also wanted to offer a possible solution. Once I started taking Ivermectin I had to reduce my blood pressure meds to one third of original dose. I used the horse paste for the first year before getting the tablets.
Wow that’s crazy. I’m definitely convinced in ivermectin but I have so many questions about it. I posted them in another comment but if you wouldn’t mind helping with them I could share it to you too?
Thank you so much for the kind words and prayer.
No problem answering questions about it. My wife also had to reduce her insulin since it reduces insulin resistance.
Reading your questions below so I'll start with those and add some other stuff.
First of all, to get the dose right if you use the Horse paste it is just by weight and self-explanatory. Take it before bed since at first it may make you a little lightheaded. Take a full dose the first couple days then you can drop to a couple times per week. Tablet form the dose is 1mg per 10 pounds and better to take above weight than below depending on tablet strength.
Take it at bedtime and it will not bother anything. She should be taking her blood pressure (pressure cuff is $20 at Walmart). Don't worry about blood pressure until you notice it is lower during the daytime.
Take it at bedtime and you won't notice a thing other than a wonderful night's sleep like you haven't had in years. Pleasant dreams and feel like a million bucks in the morning.
Horse paste is $10-$15 per tube containing 1250 pounds of paste. Make sure it is single ingredient of Ivermectin 1.87% and not a second ingredient. The best way to ingest it is just dispense onto finger and wash down with liquid rather than adding it to food and chewing. The tablets run $90 for 100 12mg tablets from Reynoldmed.com and takes a couple weeks or $200 for the same from Ivermectin.com and arrives in a few days.
Not sure but Ivermectin is safer than Tylenol.
5, After the first couple of days at full dose we just take it a couple times a week and sometimes less when we forget.
Thank you so much for all of the information and taking the time to type it out. We found some on Amazon with great (and hilarious) reviews. Mom seems all for it as long as I take it with her, but the price and my hypothyroidism, and the ick factor of possibly feeling worms come out or seeing them is making it tough to make the jump.
I know we really, really should but it’s making me anxious lmao.
Like forgive the possibly stupid comment but I have cats that I adore so much. What if I have toxoplasmosis and it gets rid of it and I no longer like my cats? And the fear of ending up ODing on my hypo medicine too.
I’m certain my doctor wouldn’t discuss this with me. Which is ridiculous.
I give it to my cats. The same meds as heart worm medicine that vets use. One of my cats also has a fatty tumor on the side of his chest and after IVM it goes down considerably.
If you are serious about improving your health, take some now. It also cleared up some skin conditions and what dermatologists have been watching as potential skin cancer. Digestion was seriously improved immediately and no I didn't look for any type of parasite that it may have cleared from my system.
IVM won the Nobel Prize for curing Prostate cancer and if you need it, I have studies showing it cures most of what we pay doctors to treat. Go to the CDC website and type in the search box Ivermectin and cancer and you will be shocked how much they have been covering up since it is so cheap and effective.
Prayers for you and your mom.
Thank you! :)
Ivermectin. Been using in in Africa for high blood pressure for years. Prayers sent.
No way! I had no clue that ivermectin could even help with high blood pressure.
Could I please ask you several questions about it? I’ll go ahead and put them here in case you’re okay with answering but please don’t feel obligated.
Can it cause harm by lowering your BP too much when used with the medication?
Since my Mom deals with anxiety around her health, she’s worried about herxing. Is it really bad, potentially dangerous, or anything else? If it makes her feel like crap or “weird/different”, that will probably freak her out.
How can we get it affordably? We don’t have enough money to buy a ton from overseas. And is it still being confiscated in the mail?
I have hypothyroidism I’m on medicine for but I’ve been told ivermectin can help that too. But I’m also worried about the ivermectin + medicine messing me up and swinging me hyperthyroid. My TSH and stuff is already very low because that’s where I feel best.
How long/often do we take it?
Thank you so much for replying and your prayers. My Mom says thank you too. :)
Get the AAA dealt with first, the rest of the questions can be found around the forum. Do a search on ivermectin.
There’s nothing To do about the AAA right now. Doctor said it was teeny tiny and would just need to be monitored. Being able to safely get rid of it would take a huuuuuge weight off of our minds for sure.
I’m learning a lot about ivermectin today. We’re trying to figure out a way to get some for her now. :)
Hypothyroidism is iodine deficiency from lack of iodine, and from fluorine, chlorine and bromine displacing the iodine in your thyroid and other parts of your body with iodine receptors. You can take lugols iodine daily.
Dr David Brownstein has been doing iodine therapy for over 13y. https://www.drbrownstein.com/
Thank you, I will look into that and see if there’s something I can try. :)
I said a prayer for your mom. I will offer a possible route for treatment. It’s a bit holistic, but it helped me with my psoriasis! If you look into ‘medical medium’, he’s helped countless people cure their various illnesses. I believe God has given us the tools we need to cure our illnesses. Western medicine can be very beneficial, but getting close to the earth and receiving Gods blessings through the soil, can do wonders!!
Thank you so much for the prayer and your kindness. We will definitely look into medical medium!
I hope you do and I hope you find an answer. Medical Medium was an answered prayer for me!
🙏 for Mom...
Thank you so much.
Prayers
If she's able, walking is good for the soul especially in the sunshine. Walk with her, make it a habit and enjoy your time together. I will pray for you both.❤🙏
Yes! We definitely want to do this when it warms up. The cold is rough on her and makes her feel crappier but I’m gonna try to talk her into it sooner and before it starts snowing. :) Thank you! ❤️
She'll be in my prayers.
I have read that a diet of only fruits, does wonders to blood pressure, among other things. Do some search on that. Hope she gets better, be strong.
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Go heavy on cbd if your in a recreational legal state real THC at night for sleep 3 to 4 weeks should mark large improvement in BP
Done. May our Father lay His divine hand upon your mothers heart, sir.
Beets every day. Works for me ! Good for 10 points. Read the labels on those meds. Then do your research..
Dear Father in Heaven, please send your love, peace and healing to this mother and prayer warrior. Heal her on every level of her being and let your forgiveness and peace comfort her soul every day.
You created us, our minds, souls and bodies as living miracles of your love and you know what this daughter of yours is needing to get well, healthy and peaceful again and we thank you for sending it too her now.
You are our loving Father protecting us and providing us with everything we need every day, we only have to open up, receive and accept it with our faith, forgiveness and thankfulness for your never ending love. Thank you, Heavenly Father, for your love, peace and healing of this child of yours.
In the 1980s the formula for a healthy blood pressure was "age + 100" They changed those values since then!!! First they lowered it to 140 as normal and now they say 120 is normal and 140 would be high blood pressure. Older people will have higher blood pressure due to the narrower blood vessels, the body regulates the pressure up so that heart and brain can receive enough blood - normal process. Please inform yourselve about that and consider it.
The kidneys and renal glands (stress!!!) play an important role to regulate the blood pressure. It is important to drink (water, herbal tea) sufficiently. Also it is important to provide Vitamin D, calcium and magnesium.
Hibiscus tea - daily! It can regulate high and low blood pressure and tastes good.
To lower high blood pressure immediately I have had very good results for my mother with a glass of water with lemon juice; a glass of water with a magnesium effervescent tablet; or/and with bathing the feets in very warm water. Results should be seen in 10 to 15 minutes. She has tablets for emergency cases (blood pressure higher than 170), but we never needed them due to the above.
She could learn breathing techniques which are very efficient to regulate our wonderful mind-body-soul system. -> Yoga breathing techniques
If your mother is in her 50s also consider the hormonal change that comes for women in these years. The body is trying to cope with it and will find its balance after some time.
If she is not taking one, a good magnesium supplement might help her. (The OTC pill supplements are not usually very bio-absorbable.)
Something like this might help to increase her melatonin production. (Helps reduce anxiety, and promotes healing sleep.)
https://www.amazon.ca/Natural-Vitality-raspberry-flavor-magnesium/dp/B00BPUY3W0
Or relaxing Epsom Salts baths every night for 15 minutes or so are another great way to topically absorb magnesium through the skin.
It's going to take time, so help her to get her mind on other things that she's interested in, if you can. Your instincts are right on that the anxiety is going to make things much worse for her. Maybe she should take a break from the redpilling...and watching the news. It can take a toll on her by keeping her stressed.
And best of luck to your mom. She's got the best support in you.
Don't know what AAA is but Berberine is supposedly good for high blood pressure and Diabetes. Prayer sent.
AAA is basically an aneurism in your aortic valve. I will look into the Berberine. Thank you!
In the name of Jesus, we ask for blessings of good health for this precious mother. Amen.
Thank you so much :)
Some natural remedies for lowering BP are coconut oil, vitamin K2, turmeric, and olive leaf extract.
