All your blood pressure recordings (attachments removed to protect the patient's identity) are good, and you do not require to take any blood pressure-lowering medications. Continue taking Novastat 5 mg (Rosuvastatin) once a day before bedtime. Do exercise regularly. Have a walk for atleast 40 minutes daily. Do cycling or any sports activity. Reduce your salt intake and avoid drinking alcohol or take in low frequency and quantity. Quit smoking. Yoga is a natural way to heal it and do it along with moderate exercise. I hope this was helpful.
