I am a 41-year-old male and have been diagnosed with high BP since last month when my BP touched 150/110. I was given Telma 40 and a calcium channel blocker LN Bloc 5. Alongside, I was diagnosed for cholesterol and given Turbovas F, a statin-fenofibrate combo drug. However, I found the side-effects quite debilitating as there was swelling in the left ankle and perpetual pain. So I discontinued all the medications withing 26 days. I now take a herbal drug called Arjuna to control my BP. Yet, my diastolic never goes below 90. Also, today, my BP read 140/100. I am worried. What should I do?
