Please help me help my dad!

Hello,
My father had triple by-pass surgery in December of 2006 and since then his blood pressure is extremely high and the doctors can not get it controlled. He is on 5 different blood pressure medicines along with other pills for diabetes. To add to the high blood pressure, he worries that it may cause a stroke. His doctors just keep increasing his mecidines dosage but it is not going down. Is this a normal side effect from his surgery?
Thank you,
Marcy

The other thing is of course his diet and lots of exercise.
Hope this helps.
