High Blood Pressure Despite Taking Betaseric. Loss Of Balance. Need Help

why is my b.p. since 2 mos.ago seems to be high. waking up it is usually 175 70, 2 hrs later it will be 145/59. It varies from time to time, but what I am concerned about is the diastolic no. I want your help.
Also I have another problem that has been bothering me for about four years and not a Dr. could find the problem.
I had an MRI which was o.k., I was given Betaseric and no help. Five times I lost my balance and fell!
I have confidence in you and I hope you have an answer for my worries.
Thank you

Cardiologist,  's  Response
Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

The body's balancing mechanism is in the inner ear. An ENT (Ear Nose Throat) specialist is the one to see - especially in the presence of tinnitus. They have special tests to confirm or exclude the contribution of the ear - which probably is the case with you.
If there are no clues, you have to be followed up by a neurologist.

High systolic is generally due to stiffness of vessel wall / Low diastolic is often due to low rate or vasodilatation. There is circadian rhythm for BP - starts rising from dawn , peaking before noon... See a cardiologist...

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
