I have been on medication for high blood pressure for over a year. Actually, I was having VERY severe headaches, and my dr said that it was the blood pressure problem causing them. He took me off of bcp, and sent me to an endo to treat the pcos. (He said that both pcos and bcp could have contributed to the HBP) I have been on glucophage since then. My dr said that we may try to wean off of the blood pressure medication soon to see if treating the pcos has also corrected my blood pressure. Cathy
