Question

I'm really concerned about my dad's blood pressure. He's been dealing with high BP for a while, but it was stable and normal the past few days. Today it shot up to 153110 and he took his usual Tazlock 20, which has Telmisartan IP in it. Is this something we should be really worried about and what steps should we take from here?

I've been having this weird feeling where my heart skips a beat, and it's making me uneasy. I recently saw a cardiologist, and he checked my echo test report and said everything looked fine.
