My bp on 05.01.22 was 150/100 (right arm) & 130/90 (left arm). The doctor told me to take amlodipine 5 for 5 days. I was diagnosed with covid on 06.01.22 with no symptoms except 100.8 fever for 2 hours on 05.01.22. On 16.01.22, my bp was 177/105. The doctor advised me to take telma 40 for 15 days. When I monitor the bp at home with digital machine (bp one), I always get normal bp (120-135/75-90). I never had alarming bp level for past 5 years. Please guide what to do?

Your bp is still high. You should not discontinue telma 40 without doctor's advice. Bp tablet only 'controls' bp at certain level but does not cure permanently. Don't stop or change bp dosage without consulting your physician.
