Early morning acidity causing BP to Rise
Hi Doctor. I am hypertensive aged 33 male. In early morning around 3-5 A.M., I get up with uneasiness. When I check my BP, it becomes 140/95 and I feels like severe acidity. The BP comes down to normal after an hour as I take a PPI. It happens once in 6-7 days. Please advice what shall I do?

For that BP I suggest additional life style modifications and you must look into any stressors in life.
Also might consider restricting salt.
Now comes the acidity part ...besides the obvious contributory factors like stress.
Some questions
Your medications
Your dietary habits
Any reflux symptoms - regurgitation of stomach contents
Any history of sore throat or cough recently especially towards morning.
Next Steps
for now.. avoid spicy food and high protein diets for now.
And you can book an online consult for more discussion.
