It's important to understand that managing high blood pressure often requires a combination of lifestyle changes and, in many cases, medication. While lifestyle changes like regular exercise, a healthy diet, stress management, and other activities like yoga can significantly impact blood pressure, they might not be sufficient alone, especially in cases of consistently high readings like yours. Regarding your specific situation: Continuing Physical Activity: Resuming yoga and cycling is a great idea, as regular physical activity is known to help lower blood pressure. However, it's important to reintroduce these activities gradually, especially if you haven't been doing them regularly for a while. Diet and Lifestyle Modifications: In addition to exercise, a heart-healthy diet low in sodium and rich in fruits, vegetables, lean protein, and whole grains can help manage blood pressure. Avoiding tobacco, limiting alcohol intake, and managing stress are also important. Monitoring Your Blood Pressure: Keep monitoring your blood pressure regularly. This will help you understand how your lifestyle changes are affecting your blood pressure and will provide valuable information for your doctor. Consulting Your Doctor: It's crucial to discuss your desire to avoid medication with your doctor. They can provide guidance on whether it's safe for you to manage your blood pressure without medication based on your individual health profile. Abruptly stopping medication without a doctor's advice can be risky, especially with high blood pressure readings like yours. Medication Concerns: If you have concerns about specific medications or their side effects, discuss these with your doctor. There might be alternative medications or dosages that work better for you. Understanding the Risks: High blood pressure can lead to serious health problems like heart disease, stroke, and kidney damage. It's often called a "silent killer" because it typically has no symptoms until significant damage has occurred.
