Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. Diastolic is low. Will require venous stocking.
2. Systolic blood pressure, if between 100-140, not to worry.
3. For better control, weight reduction and moderate exercises will help.
4. Additionally, reducing dose of micardis and adding a beta blocker could be helpful. Control salt in diet along with life style modification and altered medication, it would reduce blood pressure variation.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
