Hi,
Thanks for query,
If your blood pressure remains high for long time I wonder why you did not start the treatment ?
Now a days bp is very common due to stress and strain of life.
You do not have malignant hypertension,only simple antihypertensive medicine will control your bp.
Do not hesitate for going for treatment.
Untreated high bp will produce complications in future.
Go for ECG,lipid profile and blood sugar.
Ok and bye.

Hi well come to HCM>
BP 165 at the age of 29 is quite high you have not mentioned your diastolic BP which
is eqally or more important than systolic BP.Observe BP for few more readings in resting
coditions to judge the severity of BP, and to asses what dose you of medicine you will
require to start with. If persistantly remains at this level should not deped on diet and
exercise to get the result.How ever it should be continued to get additional benefit
on drugs.Intially drug like B-blocker metoprolol may be tried. Get done your cbc,rft,lipid
profile,sugar and urine report to preserve as base line reports. Thanks

Hello.Welcome.Since you are adopting lifestyle changes for past 2 years it is high time that you start anti hypertensive medications.The goal should be to bring your BP to 120/80 mm of hg level as long standing hypertension has detrimental effect on your cardiovascular system.Consult a doctor for the medicines and basic investigations like blood sugar,lipid profile,LFTs,KFTs and thyroid function tests.Good luck.

Dear
BP at this age in majority of cases comes from parents and this is regarded as malignant hypertension. It calls for regular observation and treatment only diet control may fail to check it. Have regular exercise and get your lipid profile also checked. In Ayurveda we recomment sarpgandha compounds you can have mukta vati. shirodhara lowers it. shav asan and meditation also lowers it. restrict salt and fats.
