Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
Yes, you definitely need to start antihypertensives.
Most probably you have essential hypertension and you need life long treatment.
Hypertension is very common in young adults due to changing life style.
You also need to rule out renal artery stenosis. It can be ruled out by colour Doppler of kidneys as it may be the cause of hypertension.
You also need ultrasound of abdomen and complete lipid profile,LFT.
It is good that you are taking various precautions and you should continue all the general measures.
Get well soon.
