You're a little young for the onset of essential hypertension which is the commonest type& tends to be familial. Resting& inactivity may lower BP but once you become active again the improvement is shortlived. Continue treatment, good diet,regular exercise & strive for ideal weight. BP goal is 130/80 or lower. Your MD will order any appropriate testing.
