Hello, all the symptoms you describe are due to the blood pressure being on higher side. The mentioned pressure range will not come back to normal with just diet and lifestyle modifications.
So along with the above, you should consider starting medication for hypertension after proper evaluation. . A ace inhibitors /arb with chlorthalidone will be a good combination for you.
