I am having trouble with high blood pressure that won't go away. I have seen my doctor and have been prescribed medication, but my BP has remained high. I am looking for advice from other people who have experienced this. What have you done to manage your high BP? Have you had success with lifestyle changes or natural remedies? Are there any supplements or medications that have worked for you? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

High blood pressure that won't go away is often caused by an underlying medical condition such as kidney disease, diabetes, or an overactive thyroid. In rare cases, high blood pressure may also be caused by an adrenal or pituitary gland disorder. It is important to speak to your doctor if you have been diagnosed with high blood pressure that won't go away. Your doctor may suggest lifestyle changes, such as exercising regularly and limiting alcohol and salt intake, to help lower your blood pressure. They may also prescribe medications such as diuretics, ACE inhibitors, and beta blockers to help reduce your blood pressure. In some cases, lifestyle changes may not be enough, so it is important to speak to your doctor about the best treatment for you.

High blood pressure that doesn't go away can be a sign of an underlying health condition, such as kidney or heart disease. If you have high blood pressure that doesn't respond to lifestyle changes or medications, it's important to talk to your doctor about diagnosing and treating the underlying condition.
