My experiment on cutting again my Caffeine intake while hooked-up for my dialysis worked because my blood pressure this time around didn't crash like what happened last Wednesday where I just have to give-up for the reason that I am already blacking-out to shock levels.
But today had I cut my intake of Caffeine taking out one capsule which contains about the equivalent of two cups of coffee. So in total I just took about 500 mg of caffeine because I was drinking an energy drink which also contains Caffeine.
The result is still good because my BP didn't even budge to lower levels thanks be to God. Now I will just maintain that because lately I am just overdosed with Caffeine after dialysis, the dialysis seems to not wash caffeine off completely from my system though I am confident that I will not get too overdosed that it will cause my heart to irregularly beat.
Now at least I know that only two caffeine capsules are working for me. It is also economical because of course I will not get to consume my Caffeine capsules quickly.
But still I wasn't so sure if the blood pressure crashes are as a result of my Gabapentin intake because I didn't take Gabapentin after my dialysis last Wednesday. It is because I know for my experience that Gabapentin has a relaxing effect to the muscles and the heart is a muscle itself.
The dialysis process itself has a hypotensive effect because of fluid removal from the body and if my heart is relaxed while I am on dialysis then it could contribute about my hypotension which is what came to my mind recently.
But again I could not take off Gabapentin because it helps me with a lot of things in my body. What I will just do now is to cut back too with its use and only for now taking about 100 mg of it once a week.
These things are just my way on managing my peculiar health situation, I always have to take compromise for the benefit of my own well-being afterall because of my previous efforts I am now doing better than in the last few months and years. Thanks be to God.
