Now for last 2 months I am having higher BP average 130/95 and a tingling in my foot and lower leg and mild pain occasionally. What should I do? Should I start BP Medicines??
Hi, Welcome to ChatDoctorAfter going through history, Diabetes type II, Neuropathy,dyslipidemia, Asthma these are lifestyle diseases and need to be controlled lifelong. Certainly press increases BP and makes sugar control difficult. Your BP is in pre-hypertension range and can be monitored regularly along with lifestyle modification, reduce Salt intake to Take up regular walking 3 to 4 km/day, do practice yoga and meditation, along with Panama which will also help Asthma. If overweight reduce weight also check your Lipid Profile and ECG. If BP is not controlled and rises further treatment with Chat Doctor. Your pain in lower limb and tingling may be because of diabetic neuropathy. Discuss with treating Physician your treatment is OK. Take disregards
