Anxiety issue or something else

Whenever I feel stress , even day to day life stress causes chest tightness and heavy breathing. I feel numbness in my legs and hands. Sometimes my legs start shaking and my hand also shivers and automatically my fist closes or tries to hold something and close fist tightly. I sleep a alot . Even then after some hours I feel sleepy. After my breakfast either my head feels heavy or light and my eyes starts closing and I feel so sleepy that I can't resist it for too long and then I sleep again .

Blood Pressure Medication

In Feb'26  I got stressed out and became very anxious. I was put on Concor 2.5mg. All test 2D Echo and ECG were done and normal. Then at the same time I developed a UTI infection and after I got better I was put on Concor 5T as in the doctor office my BP went 150/100 whereas at home it has been 115-145/72-86 in that range, Now my BP is always between 110-118/62-76. I have been taking Concor 5T since a month now. Can I reduce and completely stop the medication as I never had BP before in my life, only during the time of my anxiousness it went up and only whenever my BP is checked at a doctor's place it goes up with the fear.
