I too have had some BP probs lately, I'm wondering if it could be related to the Hep C or to my recently diagnosed heart palpitations. My BP was almost always 115/75 at the highest, lately the bottom # was edging toward 90!! BP runs in my family, my mom was diagnosed at my exact same age. Now I'm taking 12.5 mg Atenolol, to help with both the palpitations & the BP too. The palps are better, two weeks later my BP is back to the high 60s/mid 70s.
