have you seen a medical professional about this? If you have, and you live in the UK, the doctor will initially talk to you about lifestyle and diet.

There are indeed pills that will help keep your blood pressure down. The best website to go to for advice is, in my opinion, Blood Pressure UK which is a charity devoted to this subject.

Within Health Unlocked is a section for those suffering with high blood pressure so you could go there too.

It is for you to contact your own doctor.

The doctor who diagnosed the fibromuscular dysplasia should either be the one to help you or he should refer you to the appropriate practice who can help you with the blood pressure and any other conditions that might be caused by your condition. It is a bit alarming that they diagnosed you and let you go without giving you instructions on what to do next.
