Then, when I came out a couple hours later, there was a couple of people telling me that it went crazy high and that they had to give me something to get it down. They said I should get to my PCP right away. And, it hasn't come down since then.

Sandy, it is a little worrisome that it went up so quickly and so dramatically. Many things can cause your BP to go up, heart or kidney problems - but you usually know about them as they show up before the high blood pressure. It isn't usual that it just goes up and stays up, for no reason, but it is possible. If it doesn't come down with reasonable treatment, I'd see an internal medicine doctor (not GP) if you haven't already to be completely checked out for other problems that result in high blood pressure.

How is the ringing today? I know so many people that have it and have no health problems and their Doctor's say that there is nothing that can be done.
Hope your goes away and that blood pressure came down.

Ringing's not so bad today. Maybe I needed some rest! I'll still get in to the doc this week. I really do want to find a new doctor, so maybe I'll find break a new doctor in with this.
