Hi. Elevated blood pressure in your case can be secondary to essential hypertension.This can be diagnosed with the help of monitoring of blood pressure in standard 3 positions-supine,standing and sitting.I advise you to have a baseline ecg and 2 dimensional echo to rule out organic heart disease.Restict the intake of salt to less than 6 gm/day.Antihypertensives can be used o control the blood pressure in refractory cases. Thank you.
