I've been dealing with headaches last week that lasted for two days, and my BP was at 240160. I got an MRIMRA done, and luckily everything was normal. Started taking Cilacar 10mg once a day, and from the next day, my BP seemed under control. But today, it suddenly spiked to 180120 this evening. I can only get in to see a doctor tomorrow. Should I consider taking half of the Cilacar 10mg now to help lower it?

I've been dealing with anxiety disorder and was on Ciplar LA 20 for that. My pulse used to be around 55. The doctor recently switched me to Ciplar LA 10, and now my pulse rate is up to 90. I'm wondering if that's something to be worried about? My blood pressure is 12080 and my SpO2 is at 98%. Any thoughts on what this might mean?
