BP had been stable for 18 months after HA. I’m on low dose candesartan 4mg . My blood pressure started rising slowly then I began to feel unwell so doctor had increased candesartan to 8mg and BP has stabilised again.
What makes BP increase I have not done anything different? Could it be arteries becoming blocked again( mine was LAD and two stents there and I stent in another artery) that’s my fear that arteries are getting blocked again

My recent spike in SBP to >165 was caused by my allowing caffeine back into my diet which I had previously given up, now that I have totally stopped drinking or eating any caffeine including decaf my SBP has decreased to <128; try giving it up for two weeks and monitor the results.
