What Causes Elevated Blood Pressure Post Hernia Surgery With Hemicolectomy?

I had hernia surgery with a hemicolectomy a month ago and my bp has been running from 175/82 with bp @ 66 and blood glucose @181 1 week after surgery and today it is 116/69 pulse 85 with blood sugar 170. I keep getting headaches. I am a type two diabetic and those numbers have been running 247 high and 38 low in the last month. Have been to my primary dr. about the bp as the surgeon was concerned. Have an appointtment with heart dr. in 1 month. Should I try to go sooner or hang in there until my appointment Dec. 14th.
