Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Yes please. my blood pressure has been 138/80, ppulse 75. i have been getting head ache in the morning (occasionally). I checked my BP ysterday. It was 155 by 95, pulse 75. than after a minute it was 158 by 85, pulse 80. I kind of get scared seeing the first count so it could have elevated the second count. should i see a dr as I'm going out of town next week.
Hi There I can understand your concern and will try to help you here. Yes you should take an opinion. My advise is As your Bp is not significantly high so instead of directly starting on some medicine I would like to recommend you to follow some lifestyle modifications that includes Daily walbs for a minimum of 45 mins for 5 days a week, low dietary salt intake, avoid caffeine containing drinks, stop smoking, avoid junk food and include more vegetables and fruits in your daily diet. Follow this strictly for 3 months and you probably won't need any medicine.
Wish you Good Health
