I take NADOLOL .--. It worked for me. Lowers blood pressure.
The one serious implication could be "Bleeding esophageal varices"
if you also have some of the following symptoms:
Vomiting or coughing up blood
Red or dark stools
Low blood pressure
Lightheadedness
Rapid heartbeat
Note: not all of these symptoms must be present.
This is a possible consequence of chronic Hep C infection.
In the event you don't have any other abnormal symptoms, then it's a wait and see situation.
Best wishes,
Niko
