Hi,
Thank you for your query. I can understand your concerns.
It seems that you have been prescribed vasodilator group of drugs for hypertension as you have Buerger's disease or thromboangitis obliternas ,an inflammatory occlusive vascular disorder involving small and medium-size arteries and veins in the distal upper and lower extremities,by which there is limb ischemia.
Since BP is lower than previously recorded stable blood pressure around 140/92 mm hg ,your drugs for hypertension need to be adjusted.
Regards
