1) The cause of your BP seems your anxiety and the most important bit is to address that by consulting a psychiatrist. Reducing this anxiety is going to reduce the BP automatically. This experimentation with medications is not going to solve the problem. And please understand each patient has a different response to different medication, which is best judged by the treating cardiologist, so kindly consult a cardiologist and follow their advice 2) Please do not measure your BP too frequently once...more

Fbs/ppbs alone is not enough to understand how good your glycaemic control. You also need to do your hba1c to find out the 3 month average. The other point is, you're taking 30u insulin at night, maybe your technique is incorrect. Hence the insulin delivery is not optimal. Lookout for the following.
1. Skin colour change around insulin site,
2. Feeling of nodules under the skin (injection site) the above indicate you're not following the right method of taking insulin and/or you are not ...more

This is a followup question for Dr. Anunai shrivastav who answered my question recently. He suggested to stop ramipril and take olmesartan 40 mg. Thanks for that. I will be obliged if he can tell me, if I can take telmisartan 40 mg which is consumed by my wife and is readily available with us. I can try that for a week if doctor has no reservations. Advice if amlodipine also can be continued with telmisartan. For olmesartan 40 mg ,i do not have prescription. I paste below my earlier question for reference as below:- I am diabetic on insugen 30/70 refill injection, glycomet gp2, ppg 0.3 mg and other drugs. I am also hypertensive on ramipril 5 mg and amlodipine 5 mg. My query is related to hypertension and not on diabetic problem. I am taking the above medicines for last 5 years on hypertension but my hypertension is more than 160/75. It shoots to 175 frequently. I began treadmill jogging exercise for 1 hour every day and then hypertension reduces to about 150/72. If I do not jog for 1 day, hypertension goes back to 160/170. I am consuming ramipril 5 mg + amlodipine 5 mg everyday, once before lunch. The hypertension is not at all reduced with these drugs but only by jogging. I am 60 years old and jogging for 1 hour is very strenuous, leading to knee pain frequently. Suggest replacement drugs for hypertension.

Mr. lybrate-user
best medicine to control blood pressure is exercise as you realize. As of now your blood pressure menu is having space to either increase dose or add one more drug. Here I will suggest to add one more drug chlorthalidone 12.5 mg.
