You need to change your diet and lifestyle alongwith medicine and need to follow a specific diet, not too much empty caloric but nutrient based, for diet plan consultation, book online appointment with me.

What do you mean by High BP..
Did you check once or remained High on multiple occasions..
Now Tell me about your headache, From what time, It's association with High BP, Does headache always accompany High BP,
Does your Headache is associated with any other symptoms like Nauseated feelings, Tachycardia.
What would you like at the time of headache, a cool & calm room VS Market noise,Stronge car lights, Standing in sun.
How is your Sleep,Do you feel fresh in the morning.
Thanks

High bp. 150/100-90.
Checked on multiple occasions, digital and mechanical both.
I can feel the difference in headache if its from bp or if its something else. Nauseated feeling only today, bp is high mostly in the morning. yes I think it is noise related.
Waking up is mostly fresh, rarely not fresh.

Now Let's discuss its management:
1:Migraine Headaches (usually accompanied by High BP)
Treatment: will take about 2 weeks to effect.
Tab.Hitop 25mg Aik Raat Ko 7din,phir aik subah aik sham ko atleast 3 months.
Tab:Inderal 40mg
1/2 + 1/2 3 months

2:To Rule out Secondary HTN,we have to do some tests
TFTs, ECG, ECHO, Renal doppler, Serum Cortisol, Urea/Creatinine,
Urinary VMA, Eye Examination.

HTN
95% essential mean genetic

1. What is your BP with Blokium, and before blokium?
2. What is your pulse rate?
3. You need to get Serum sodium, serum potassium, serum creatinine and chest x ray done. (Also serum TSH fromAga Khan lab.)
4. your detailed history needs to be knoen
5. In general blokium (beta blockers) are not the choice first-line medicine to give for BP.

without blokium, 150/90. with blokium 120 80.
pulse is around 80-85.
I did capoten today to lower the pressure.

as you are very young, you should not taken capoten or any other medicine from the ACE inhibitor or ARB group until you have checked that serum potssium, serum creatinine and doppler ultrasound of renal arteries are all normal.
As I said, taking medicines by yourself without a complete consultation with an expert can be very dangerous.
if only blokium 50mg is not controlling your BP to 130/80 or less, you can add Tab. Norvasc 5mg once a day
