Hi, dear I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Your blood pressure is high. You should take salt restricted diet and measure your blood pressure again. If it comes high for 2 to 3 times then antihypertensive medicine like losartan or atenolol should be taken. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
