You need to first understand few things about blood pressure. Normal range of blood pressure is between 90/60 to 140/90, anything above or below is is abnormal. Many factors can affect blood pressure, including: 1) The amount of water and salt you have in your body 2) The condition of your kidneys, nervous system, or blood vessels 3) Your hormone levels 4) your lifestyle - smoking, drinking, exercise  Stress, less sleep, smoking, alcohol, overweight, heart, kidney problems , lack of physical exercise. All of these can cause High blood pressure.. You are more likely to be told your blood pressure is too high as you get older. This is because your blood vessels become stiffer as you age. When that happens, your blood pressure goes up.  Highblood pressure increases your chance of having a stroke, heart attack, heart failure, kidney disease, or early death. So my advice to you would be 1) Keep a BP record daily for at least one week & Every time you need to measure BP twice with a gap of 15 mins rest. 2) Basic tests should be one to rule out cardiac / kidney issues & find if there is any treatable cause of High blood pressure 3) unless any recent evaluation has been done I would advice these test ECG ECHO Lipid Profile TSH KFT  Renal doppler  Get back to me with a detailed history and  old / new records For Now Keep taking the same medicines which you are taking ...plus Start lifestyle changes & diet changes Emphasizes vegetables, fruits, and fat-free or low-fat dairy products. Includes whole grains, fish, poultry, beans, seeds, nuts, and vegetable oils. Limits sodium, sweets, sugary beverages, and red meats. Along with this, other lifestyle changes can help lower your blood pressure. They include staying at a healthy weight, exercising, and not smoking. Meanwhile  Make sure you have seen all these explanatory videos on blood pressure, most common questions are already answered in these videos https://youtu.be/8niw24mxqre https://youtu.be/cfy-sv2anxg https://youtu.be/mch8y6_mpt8 https://youtu.be/svii-o_844m https://youtu.be/lfhdtga6c9m https://youtu.be/872niif5-xk https://youtu.be/h3vngwmo00w https://youtu.be/3rauzr7c09k https://youtu.be/h0rwg6fz3lu https://youtu.be/f6oeseyfa0g https://youtu.be/4p7crfdudg4 If after watching all these 11 videos, you still have any questions Then we can discuss further on whatapp or call..
