Hello snowy: Welcome to NeuroTalk! I hope you find the time you spend here to be of benefit.

I'm an old geezer living in Minnesota. I have a ruptured disc in my lumbosacral spine with sciatica down both legs... left more-so than right. The toes on my right foot are mostly numb. I've done yoga in the past & had physical therapy. But the best thing for me has been simply walking. I'm quite certain I also have some problems related to problems in my cervical spine. But it's not as serious as what you describe. My BP always seems to be pretty good whenever I've had occasion to have it checked. I'm doctor aversive, so I only go if I think it's necessary. And, all thing considered, I seem to be in pretty good health for older guy...
