Perhaps, you need to change doctors. Also, what are you doing to help your situation? Try to take up yoga, relaxation courses or hobbies that will have a calming effect on you..

See an expert as soon as possible for a 2nd opinion. I have had hypertension for decades. While mine is for the most part controlled by a "cocktail" of medications, I have learned enough about high blood pressure to know that it can be caused by many things.

I strongly urge you to consult an internist who is expert in hypertension. It is possible that what is causing the elevated blood pressure is not ameliorated by your meds. In addition, there are many different types of meds for hypertension.

Depending upon your health, your physician may prescribe one over another. We cannot provide you with professional medical advice over the web, without medical training or conducting numerous tests. But, it would be beneficial to seek the advice of a second specialist.

If you haven't read the articles at the links below, I suggest you do so. PS: the 2nd blood pressure reading is at least as significant as the first which you shared. Good luck to you with this.

There are many factors to consider here. Are you taking those medications as prescribed? How long was each one tried before being discarded for a different one?

What specialty is your doctor? Have you seen an internist? Are you overweight?

Have you changed your diet to reflect low salt intake? Are you under more than typical daily stress? Could you possibly be having a drug interference with another drug(s)?

Until you have found the answers, don't settle for high blood pressure.
