I have no knowledge of these clinics, sorry.

Wondering if it has always been high?
My mother-in-law (100now) has high BP. She says it has always been high since she first had it checked in her 30s.

Not suggesting you do nothing of course!

One of my medications was doubled, I am on three, atenolol irbesartan and lercaandapine plus a statin, however my BP remains stubbornly high at around 190/85. My health provider has suggested a referral to the hypertension clinic at the hospital.

Anyone have any experience of this clinic and do they have the magic solution I am looking for? I have already adhered to the ‘lifestyle choices’ they suggest with no change.
