I quit smoking after 28 years. I am 46 years old now. after two weeks I got blood pressure (140/100) which was not consistent. It returns to 130/90. Exactly after 2 months, pressure rised to 140/100. Then doctor prescribed micardis 80 (Telmisarton). after 28 days, the doctor prescribed micardis plus 80. I am not feeling well with it after 2 doses. My pulse rate was 126 bpm yesterday afternoon. In the evening 92 Bpm. However, this morning 88 Bpm. after breakfast 92 again. Please advise me.
