Hi,

Read your history. see blood pressure of 162/72 is on the higher side. So you need to control it. Besides, you are feeling fatigued and dizzy.Even you have given a history of numbness.

I strongly feel that all these symptoms need further investigation. May be these symptoms are due to high pressure, but it can be because of other reasons.

It can be anemia,( low hemoglobin), vitamin deficiency, electrolyte imbalance ( abnormal salts in the body ), or maybe drug-induced ( due to the medicines you are taking ).

You can start with some multivitamins but do go for some investigations like complete blood count, ECG, electrolytes and kidney tests.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Milinda Gupta
