High bp and cholesterol

2017-09-04 11:59:40
Hi my BP is around 140/90 for 10 days( been checking every day). So got it checked and the doctor told for a few tests. The test showed high cholesterol (attached report), but I am a lean guy with a tummy. He gave me Rosuvas F5 and Prolomet xl 12.5 to have for 15days.I wanted to know should I take the pressure medicine?? I don't want to take that forever. I am scared to take pressure medicine.

BP varies a lot. If u check it daily it would go up simply because of the mental stress. Best way is to get 24 hrs ambulatory BP monitoring done.
