Hi
Thanks for using Health Care Magic Forum,
Your Blood pressure is high for this age group. Stop taking pills for studies as you should maintain normal body at this age group. Avoid taking unnecessary pills .
Daily meditate in early morning to concentrate on studies.
I advice you to start medication to lower bp to normal level. Start with Tablet Propranolol 10mg twice a day afer food .
Stop medication after a week and check for Blood pressure again .
I Hope I Provided Useful Information. Do ask Furthur Questions to help You get well soon.

Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
The systolic pressure of 180 is quite high
You should see a doctor...
It is likely from the drink, coffee and/or stress... It could also have been there before - and unmasked by the situation...
Frequent measurements are necessary / may be treatment too, if it remains elevated...
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
