High blood pressure with high pulse

hi not sure re the resting heart ,but my wife at preasant is 180 89 85 for the last week ,this is at these readings ,if good 145 75 78,is on 32 mg of candisartan.know these are high and will have to see doc . but sometimes the more you take it the more it goes up .the more you worry, the more it goes up .stress is the worst thing ,even good stress like going on holiday .try sitting down at a chair but your arm on a table a few deep breaths then take .do this 3 times over 10 min ,taking monitor off each time .then use the 2 with similar readings .Try breathing in slow then out a few times .But get checked out with a doc. Nurses now do blood presure ,good luck

try to relax , even if you just do breathing exicises outside ,music to relax to. but talk to your gp .

To me your anxiety is the problem, you may need some help getting it under control and for me and my husband understanding why your brain insists on going into the fight or flight mode helped big time.

My husband suffers from heart failure caused by a very nasty virus that did severe damage to his heart muscle.

His heart beat was in the 70's, his blood pressure was perfectly normal at 130/78, and yet when the specialist did a echocardiogram she was shocked at how far damaged his heart was.

Symptoms were extreme shortage of breath, coudn't walk up 6 steps without stopping, dizziness when he pushed through and weakness in leg muscles.

This advanced to what appeared to me to be exhaustion, would fall asleep as soon as he came home from work, the moment he sat down in a chair he would fall asleep, Dr's later told me later he was probably passing out, and then would wake up 10 mins later.

Local Dr at that point said nothing wrong with him, but I just knew better, asked for cardio's opinion, thats how the echocardiogram came about.

Admitted to Heart Hospital where they stablised him, did a angiogram that showed no blockages, nearly six years later he is doing very well.
