high blood pressure
"Since my diagnosis of aortic and mitral valve insufficiency my systolic blood pressure has been poorly controlled.  Clonidine 0.2mg 3x/per day has proven a miracle allowing me to now feel part of the world erasing the horrible side- effects I was experiencing related to a high systolic.  In the 3 months I have been taking clonidine I have not experienced any of the symptoms reported herein.  The patch works best as it evens out my systolic which tends to spike in the late afternoon/evening otherwise.  The insurance company won't allow 2 0.3mg patches per week so I still have to supplement the patch with 0.1mg three times a day."
