In response to:

My doctor upped my diovan/HCT 160/12.5 to 320/25. I am taking two of the 160/12.5 at the present time as I have several of them. Just started this on Monday so have only taken it two times. Tonight my BP is running between 180 - 216. Why this sudden increase in my BP. I know I am upset from seeing these figures so each time I take my BP, it is higher than the time before. I feel okay. I have type 2 diabetes but it is under control. I take one 500 metformin for that. Oh, yes, I also take 50 mg of Atenolol for BP.
