What Causes Rise In Bp With Tingling In Lips?

My blood pressure is elevated. Usual range around 140/86. At times it is 180/96. I have been on B/P meds for years and take them daily. I feel tingling of my lips and seem to yawn a lot. I just started a new business which is stressful. Any advice.

Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, increase in blood pressure and tingling sensation is due to anxiety. In that case, you can take low dose benzodiazepine on sos basis. That would help to keep anxiety in control. You can also try some relaxation exercise like JPMR or deep breathing exercise that would keep you calm or relax. In case, you need further help, you can ask.

Thanks
