My wife has been taking BP meds for years but of late, she has been having readings like 186/120 and 156/104. We have consulted our doctor and he has changed her meds. I was just wondering if anyone out in the community has had such problems and what were your solutions. My wifes' readings go down with he morning meds. This morning the readings went down to normal in just minutes after morning prayer.

I've been dealing with the same thing, this morning my bp was 196/106 Ive just learned that I have obstructive sleep apna. Has she been checked for this? I didnt have a clue that I had it . They say most people don't know they have it and it can be very serious if not treated. Good luck

My mother is about 78 years old and has had a couple of angioplasties and is a chronic patient of high BP. She is on constant medication for the last few years . Despite the large number of BP control medicines and varying doses and timmings , she has critically HIGH BP in the mornings , invariably upto 150 , 175 , 190 , and even upto 210!! The BP reduces by noon . Combinations and variations of medicines are having no effect. Can something be done???Please advise.
