this medication helps with my symptoms but doesn't stop them all together without me having to take larger doses (as prescribed). However, when I take the larger doses, it makes me extremely lightheaded.

I am suffering from episodes of hypertension, headaches and flushing, most probably caused by neuroendocrinal substances. Chromogranin A level is 3 times above the upper standard (370/90). I have slowly introduced Dibenzyline up to (10mg-10mg-10mg) within 1 month together with Propranolol (50mg-0-50mg). Since then the blood pressure went down from 210/90mmHg to 160/80mmHg. The headaches have stopped completely. However, flushing has not changed much.
