General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

These readings are not consistent with hypertension absolutely. Prehypertension can be considered manageable with home remedies and no medicines are required. For diabetes rather than relying upon sugar as fasting/postprandial. I strongly recommend to take once HB1Ac level report for final confirmation which gives you average of last 3 months blood sugar rather than remaining in dilemma daily.

General measures supportive for your case:
• Regular walking (preferable in fresh air), jogging, exercises, deep breathing, yoga
• Diet should be salt restricted
• Avoid stress, anxiety -- your 2 major enemies of life
• Keep laughing, enjoying tiniest things in life from inside of your heart
• Engage yourself more in likelihood activities
• Avoid smoking/alcohol/any abuse substances if using at all
• Sleep should be of daily sound type and it should be of minimum 7 to 8 hours
• Opt for organic items more as vegetables, drinks, and fruits

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Purva Patel
