Hi cardiologists I have a question for myself. I first visited doctor on 10 dec and my bp reading was 130/80 (i usually check my bp every 2 months) after that around 22nd dec I had digestion issues and I was stressed about that to think any serious stomach issue and costed doctor he took my bp and it was 150/100 and he gave me antacids and some antibiotics suggesting indigestion issues and asked to have lipid profile test, on 26th dec I went through test and my total cholesterol, ldl, and triglycerides were high and hdl was good 53. I was so tensed looking these numbers and went to doctor he measured my bp and it was 155/90. He ask to start medicine low dosage for a month and report. He started telmi 20 and storvas 10. I start medicines and did lifestyle changes like doing cycling daily for 10 kms walking 5000 steps daily and a lot of diet changes and lost 4 kgs weight as of now, I have a ques will my medication get stop? Or why did not recommend lifestyle change at first as I am 33.

Bp tablet only 'controls' bp at certain level but does not cure permanently. Don't stop or change bp dosage without consulting your physician.

You can discontinue storvas since it is useful after heart attack, not before it happens Yes you should maybe avoid modern lifestyle as it causes modern diseases like diabetes heart attacks etc Traditional lifestyle is safe and very effective
