Welcome to HCM. I am sorry to hear about your problem. I will try my best to help you out here.
Having a blood pressure of 226/170 is a medical emergency. It is not safe for you to stay at home even if your blood pressure is decreasing. I would recommend going to the emergency department immediately.
I hope this answers your question. Please feel free to contact if you have any further questions.
sincerely,
Dr. Waqas Hayat.
