A doctor has provided 1 answer

Don't wait: Unless very high, blood pressure is a silent killer. It damages the blood vessels to the brain, heart, kidneys and strains the heart muscle. By the time it causes symptoms, there may be irreparable damage. There are hundreds of medications available, from which it should be possilble to choice a treatment which you tolerate well. Don't wait till it is too late.
