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?

View allI've been dealing with high blood pressure for the past two years and I'm a bit worried because I'm currently taking Metzok 50 every day. Is there anything else I should be doing to better control my hypertension? I'm just not sure if the medicine alone is enough or if there are other lifestyle changes I should be aware of.
To control high blood pressure effectively, it is important to continue taking your medication as prescribed. Metzok 50 is a brand name for Metoprolol, which is a beta-blocker commonly used to treat hypertension. The usual dosage for Metoprolol in hypertension is 50-100mg once daily. It is important to follow your doctor's instructions regarding the dosage and timing of your medication. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, limiting alcohol intake, and managing stress can also help in controlling high blood pressure.

I've been experiencing some occasional tingling or numbness on the left side of my chest, like maybe twice a week. It doesn't really hurt or anything. I've read online that it might be related to anxiety, but I don't feel anxious or stressed out. Do you think I should see a doctor about this, or is it something normal?
Ecg is recommended along with serum electrolytes..
