Hi, dear.
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Your blood pressure is very high. Specially diastolic blood pressure is very high so you should concern for that. Serious cardiovascular events or stroke may occur at this blood pressure. You should consult your physician and reset your drug dose. If needed add one extra drud for hypertension.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
