High BP and MVP
My blood pressure was 150/80 but through diet and exercise i have brought it to 140/80 since 6 months and still going
I am absolutely fit and fine and my MD wants me to bring it to 130/80 throught lifetyle only without medicine
But my only concern is my eco report which is absolutely fine except mitral valve peolapse with mild regurgitation heart percentage is also 60 percent

Start medication. All the pressure you cannot gym and reduce. You have a valve leaking!

For 150/80 along with MVP you need medicines. This level wont affect mitral valve much but you need medicines for this BP
