Wow, so your BP has righted itself post surgery? That's pretty amazing. Your post sparked me into reading about this. I had no idea that gallstones are linked to heart disease. https://www.webmd.com/digestive-disorders/news/20160818/gallstones-linked-to-higher-heart-disease-risk#1 I really don't know if that has happened to you, but would that be awesome, or what?! Now, I am one of those people that thinks that if you are going to discontinue a medication, you should do so with a doctor's knowledge. so, I'd call your doctor to discuss all of this. They currently are doing a lot o telemedicine so you can do it virtually and get guidance. Please let me know what they say!!
