Blood Pressure Target

2024-05-22 08:28:09
Due to dilation  of Aortic Root and Ascending Aorta ( 4.8 cms ) I was told by Cardiologist to measure bp once in two weeks and if Systolic above 130 consistently to see him. My BP now is 130/100. He did not mention about diastolic pressure. Is this an issue or can the diastolic value be ignored if Systolic is normal. Taking Concor AM 5mg.
