[|AI|]  Hello, I have gone through your question. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. As such high blood pressure after age of 40 is essential and has no single causative factor. But there are many risk factors. Hereditary factor is most important. In your case smoking has contributed a lot.it's perfect that you have stopped it. Currently some of your complaints are due to with Chat Doctor. But have patience they will gradually subside. You must start antihypertensive medicine depending upon your BP level. Also get yourself evaluated for any possible complication of long-standing silent hypertension. So go for ECG, renal function tests and other necessary tests. And of course follow healthy lifestyle. My best wishes
