I would waken with my pressure 160/90, 168/89, etc. I was on
Toprol XL, which did not work for me at all. No
Beta Blocker could have kept my pressure down. At times it would go up to 220/110. Frightened as I was the DR's didn't offer to much comfort, and could not control my B/P. I also am plagued with severe anxiety, and when my pressure was up my anxiety kicked in that only INCREASED my blood pressure..
