Dear ma'm, Hi! high blood pressure specially diastolic , can be due to hypothyroidism as well. so first attain a normal thyroid balance. if BP is still high , and as you said you also have anxiety and panic attacks, so beta blocker like metoprolol 50 mg once a day would be the right choice. regards!
