Hello
Can you specify the bp in SBP/DBP .
That will help in understanding his bp better.
Systolic of 170 is quite high. Medication have to started immediately and bp has to be controlled in a gradual manner.
Just for your information, One of the worst outcomes of high bp in elderly is bleed in the brain
This is to emphasize the importance of controlling no especially in elderly.
The sugar values are also raised but not too high.Though medication has to be started for that too.
But controlling bp will be the priority
Next Steps
start medication for bp and high blood glucose levels.
