Your blood pressure is elevated since a goal is 130/80 or lower. I recommend consulting a cardiologist for a cardiovascular workup and recommendations for lowering your BP. Family history will be reviewed. Evaluation will most likely include blood tests for sugar,cholesterol, HDL,LDL,& triglyceride levels as well as a treadmill stress test. Digestive disturbances, if any, can be addressed by MD
