Stop it!: Regardless of whether it will affect your blood pressure, heart rate, lipid levels, or what ever else in a couple of days when you see your doctor, if you keep using cocaine, you are on a suicide mission. Stop using it immediately and don't ever touch the stuff.

Why does my doc request blood work and then if its off he doesn't really do anything "oh looks like your lipid is high. cut back on fats" pointless..?

If you go to see a physician because your blood pressure medication isn't keep your BP low anymore and all you get is REPEATEDLY asked is if you do cocaine, how should you handle that? A volunteer for blood work was offered but doc ignored request.
