@jdssunflower Hello, just wanted to ask if you have sleep apnea? I ask because I was diagnosed with it (the CRNA noted it during a colonoscopy of all things!) and after starting on CPAP and using it regularly my BP has come down, especially in the morning. I have readings less than 120/80 every morning now..some quite a bit lower.

@jdssunflower with a 5.8 cm aneurysm controlling your BP should be a priority, I recommend you get your cardiologist to address it ASAP, a cardiologist should be able to work with you and recommend the right combination of medications that will get you there, everyone is different so getting medication recommendations form this forum should be taken with a grain of salt, you need a Dr that knows your whole physical condition, your average should be around 130 or less systolic.
