Suggest Treatment For High BP Despite Taking Medication
I have a sinus infection and my blood pressure is elevated to 197/75. I take 2 blood pressure pills in the morning one is 50 mg and the other is 100 mg, I take at mid day another 100 mg, and before bed I take 2 one being 100 mg and the other one 10 mg. Even with my medicine tonight it is so high. Could it be from so much sinus pressure?
