고지혈증약 아니고 고혈압약 말씀하는거 맞죠? 중간에 고지혈증약 복용 한번 먹으면 평생간다고 해서 순간 헷갈렸네요. 일단 체중이 정상이고 감량해서 낮아질 혈압이 아니라면 3개월 뒤에 수치 보고 약 드셔야겠네요. 가족력으로 인한거는 방법이 없더라구요 전 심지어 저체중인데 고지혈증 내력 있어서 약은 복용하지 않아도 수치는 계속 관심있게 관찰하고 있어요. 어쩔 수없는게 가족력이니 너무 스트레스 받지말고 마음 편하게 생각하세요
My blood pressure isn't under control even with diet and exercise. Are there any other good ways to control it?

My blood pressure was found to be high during my health checkup last year.
I didn't know my blood pressure would be this high either. I was so shocked.
The hospital said that rather than prescribing medication right away, we should first try managing our lifestyle and then come back for a re-examination in three months.
So I worked really hard on it for three months.
I also do PT
I do home workouts at home and exercise on an indoor bike 3-5 times a week when I don't go to the gym.
On days when it's not cold, I do an hour of outdoor running and walking.

I also strictly controlled my diet.
And I had another checkup a while ago, and oh my... the numbers were almost the same ㅠㅠ
Even these days, when I measure my blood pressure, the results are similar.
The numbers have gone down a little, but they are still not within the normal range... My blood pressure numbers are fluctuating.
I took care of myself very thoroughly, to the point that people around me said I was really diligent in managing myself.
In particular, I worked really hard to control my diet.
But my blood pressure didn't go down as much as I expected, and only my weight went down due to my diet. For reference, I'm not overweight, but closer to underweight.
The hospital said that weight is not the problem, and that if diet and exercise don't help, then family history seems to be a big factor.
Actually, one of my parents is already taking medication, and the other one is not on medication, but is on the high side.
The doctor said I was too young to take medication, that blood pressure doesn't go down this quickly, and that since my numbers had gone down a little bit compared to before, he should stop taking medication for now and just monitor me for three more months while managing my blood pressure like I was doing now.
However, if the numbers are similar or higher in the next checkup, then they said to consider taking medication.
He said that I should manage my stress well, but for me, the biggest stress is not anything else but blood pressure.

Is there any other management method I am missing?
Or is medication really the answer in this case?

I'm even more worried because I heard that once you start taking high blood pressure medication, you have to take it for almost the rest of your life.
On the other hand, I'm also worried that if I hold on for no reason, things might get worse.

I'm dieting, exercising, and my weight is normal, but if my blood pressure doesn't go down even after managing it to this extent, what else can I do?

일단 병원에서 약을 권하지 않은 거 보면 지금 운동도 하고 식단관리도 잘 하셔서 이 정도로 나오는 거 같아요 힘들더라도 계속 관리를 조금만 더 해보세요
- OK
결국에는 약을 드셔야 하지 않을까 싶어요 약먹으면서 관리 잘하면 단약하시는 분도 계세요 너무 걱정마세요

그래도 양심있는 의사네요 약을 권유하지 않는거 보면 아직은 개선 여지가 있는 것 같아요 중간 중간 수치 내려가는 거 보면요

저랑 똑같으시네요!! 식단 운동 다 했는데도 들쑥날쑥 확 안내려가는 거.. 저희 부모님도 혈압 높아요ㅠㅠ 이정도면 유전이라 내 힘으로는 안되는 것 같아요..ㅠㅠ 슬퍼요

부모님께서 다 고혈압 이시죠 어쩔수없더라구요 혈압은체중이 저체증이라도 오는사람있구요 과체중은 아무래도 더많이나오겠죠 혈압은 스트레스 도원일이될수있어요 지금나이이가 젊다고하셨는데 이건저의생각인데요 혈압이 불규칙하니까 약을억는것이낫지않으까싶어요 물론평생 먹어야되지만 과체증이면 몸무게를줄여보자고할수있겠는데 저체증이니까 안되지않나싶어요 운동 식습관 다잘하고계시는데 개선방안이 없잖아요 혈압은 소리없는살인마라고 해요 들쭉날쭉한 혈압이 더걱정이될수있어요 그려니까 차라리 약을 먹는쪽으로하는걸이 위험부담이 적지않으까요

유전력 아니라면 나이와 체중이 유력하다고 의사쌤이 말씀하셨어요. 그래서 계속 정기적으로 체크하고 안되면 약을 처방받아 계속(평생) 먹는거라 하시거라고요. 저체중이니 살을 빼는게 아니지만 그래도 계속 운동으로 조절하시고 근육늘리시고요. 약과함께 하면 금방 정상 혈압으로 내려오실거예요. 체중외에 식이(짜게 안먹기)와 다른 약물 드시는 것이 있는지. 유전력. 신장질환을 의심해보시고요. 운동은 계속하신다니 하루에 10분씩이라도 꾸준히 움직이시는 걸 추천드려요.

잘하셨어요 우리 같이 목표를 달성해 보아요.
- 베스트
저도 그래요 과체중 아니어도 혈압 높은 사람들 있어요 이제 내가 먹는 음식이 문제가 아니라 체질 자체가 그런 거라 차라리 마음을 놔버렸어요 지금은 관리하다가 높아지면 그냥 약 먹으려고 합니다

혈압 중요합니다 잘 관리 해 가시네요
- 임★선
식단과 운동으로도 혈압이 잡히지 않는다면 다른 치료 방법을 고려해야 합니다. 전문의 상담을 통해 약물이나 추가 관리법을 확인하세요.

저도 혈압 때문에 스트레스 받아본 적 있어서 그 답답한 마음이 너무 공감돼요. 이미 운동이랑 식단을 이렇게까지 잘 관리하고 계신 것만으로도 정말 대단하신 거라, 지금 하고 계신 것들이 절대 헛된 건 아니라고 생각해요. 당장 숫자에 너무 매달리기보다 몸 컨디션이랑 생활 리듬을 조금 더 편안하게 가져가면서 꾸준히 이어가는 게 오히려 도움이 될 수도 있을 것 같아요.
