Hi,I am Dr. Robert Galamaga (Hematologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Should I Start Taking Blood Pressure Medication Again?
I am a 58 year male, 9 months ago I had my left adrenal gland removed due to a tumour . I have been taking blood pressure medication for the last 10 years, after my operation for 4 months no medication was required as my BP was averaging 130/80. It has increased and it was necessary to take medication again, it is now averaging 142/80 , is this normal.
Thank you for your query. I can understand your concerns.
