Do I Need Medicine For Controlling Blood Pressure?

Hello. I was took off my blood pressure medicine because my potassium dropped. This has been since July no medicine. Now i'm feeling tired if I do to much and can feel my pulse as if I took a jog. My reading on my blood pressure is 128/86 with my pulse of 100. Do i need medicine again?

Your blood pressure seems to be normal even after stopping medicine for so long. But your pulse rate is on little higher side. you have not mentioned your age . Pl dont take stress it can be one of cause of high pulse rate. get your lung function also tested.Treadmill for your cardiac condition. Anaemia can also cause tierdness . get yourself investeted for all things. Take citrus fruits for potassium level. If all your investigation are within normal limits you should be given tab propanalol 20mg once daily.
