Hello Anon

Thank you for writing!

It sounds like your husband's medication is not stabilizing his blood pressure. He may need to return to his doctor to see if his medication needs to be changed or adjusted.

High blood pressure puts stress on the heart, lungs, brain, kidneys, and blood vessels. Over time, this condition can damage these organs and tissues.

Advise your husband to seek medical advice.

We wish you and your husband the best.
