Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
we should never start the BP medication right after first reading
your diastolic BP 110 its abnormal as per your age.
still we can wait for 1 week if you don't have symptoms like headache ..all day heavy head feeling. we should start medication..
like telma 20 mg for this we have to see your creatinine levels.
if you are not an asthama person we can start on stamlo 5 mg
and these are prescribed drugs ...with out the test done we cant start these medication
other wise the diet plan which you had started and your regular exercise might decrease the B.P with out any medication
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
