Hi

I am not sure why you are on so many medicines for pressure. I assume all tests have been carried out to diagnose the cause of hypertension. (Please clarify this point). If so then you have Essential Uncontrolled Hypertension.  Maybe you are on other medications or you are a smoker or you take alcohol in large quantities. Please provide more details of your medical history to enable me to help you out with your problem. Also I am not sure for how long you stopped the medication before you saw the result—that stopping medication lowered the blood pressure.

Please post the details and we will try to help you out. Thanks.
