A member asked:

I'm on hbp medications; diuretics, lisnopril and clopidogrel. my bp has been under good control, but i still feel tired climbing long stirs/hills. i do have at least 40mins of walking 4/5 times weekly. does not affect my normal daily activities. why?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Intensity : Climbing stairs/hills is a more intense activity than walking. It may be just a matter of conditioning. Try increasing the intensity of your walking exercise by carrying weights. If you use a treadmill, set it at gradually increasing incline. It is good that you get regular exercise. Wish you good health!
