A member asked:

I was diagnosed w/ etd (prescribed fluticasone) i noticed my blood pressure was a little high (133/70) is there any possible correlation? thank you!

If you are taking: it as a nasal spray, no. The amount that gets in your blood stream is somewhere between minimal and minuscule. Inhaled steroids get into your system but in negligible concentrations. FYI. 133/70 is normal. Blood pressure fluctuates depending on your physical activity, your state of mind & time of day that it's measured. "ideal" values assume that you're at rest. No worries. Dr. Anne.
