At my annual physical last year my blood pressure was 136/86. My Dr said that if it's that high this year she will likely want me to start BP medication at age 41. My physical is next week. I have taken my BP periodically and it is all over the place but usually in the 120s or 130s/80-ish. There is no more I can do with lifestyle changes. Lets say my BP is low 130s/low 80s, should I try to get out of taking meds or start taking them even though I am only 41? Are there certain meds that would be recommended? How much do they cost? I am low income and don't want to spend more than I need to.
