    You need to buy a blood pressure monitor and take it three times a day for a week and see how it looks as an average

    Can you give us some more details e.g. age, weight, high BP readings, low BP readings, your estimation of normal?

    I was told to measure 3times a day for a week. That should give you a good idea of what's going on

    I am 62 and having the same problem. More than a month ago my dr gave me Coversyl. I took 2 mg for a week my pressure went down from 160/90 to 105/ 80. I drop the pill and I cut my 95% of carb from my food and did some yoga and took 4000 IU d3 and  q10 and other vitamins. I measured 3 times a day and it was the range of 105/ 80 to 130/ 80 and mostly 124/ 80. Slowely I sliped in to old diat pattern now. Now my pressure is 150/83. I thing the sugar also playing a role. My sugar is 6.7 and I don't take any medications for that. Cutting the carb brought the sugar level down and the pressure improved I think. Now I have to go back to the protein diet and am a vegitrain. Food and emotions also playing a role.
