Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query.For hypertension and high cholesterol in blood you can get symptoms like tiredness, stiffness and pain in joints.You should have a blood test for serum cholesterol also.Blood pressure of this level can be controlled by reducing salt intake.If your cholesterol is high then it should be brought in control also.Hope this may help you.
Let me know if you have any further query.
