[|AI|]  HIS UNDERSTAND YOUR CONCERNS.LATE NIGHT OR EARLY MORNING SURGE IN BLOOD PRESSURE IS BECAUSE OF CIRCADIAN VARIATIONS IN BP IN HUMAN BEINGS.EVEN IN NORMAL HUMAN BEINGS BLOOD PRESSURE IS SLIGHTLY IN UPPER RANGE OF NORMAL AT LATE MIDNIGHT AND THIS EFFECT IS PRONOUNCED IN HYPERTENSIVES. I WILL STRESS UPON YOU THAT THIS RISE IN BLOOD PRESSURE NEEDS TO BE CONTROLLED TO PREVENT FURTHER COMPLICATIONS.SO I WILL RECOMMEND YOU HOME MONITORING OF BP .YOU CAN BUY ONE AUTOMATIC ELECTRONIC BP APPARATUS.THEN VISIT YOUR PHYSICIAN WITH THESE BP READINGS AND GET YOUR DOSAGES OF ANTIHYPERTENSIVES ADJUSTED.
