Cardiologist 's  Response
Because the heart pumping improves after the surgery, previously present hypertension may become unmasked, or it may happen unrelated to the surgery.
U you should continue both the meds prescribed and add on an antihypertensive medication to the above regime along with lifestyle changes.
Sending me last echo report, detail of surgery, and detailed history, I am be able to help him /her out .
