That is certainly a blood pressure I would want treated. Many with sleep apnea see their blood pressure go down after successful treatment begins and some can come off or reduce medications used to control it.

Agree with Dr. Ferguson. If you sleep apnea is obstructive sleep apnea due to obesity, it is imperative that you lose weight. It will also facilitate control of your blood pressure.
