Has Anyone Got Hypertension While Waiting On Surgery?

I have hypertension now and I never had it before. This really bothers me that I have another co-morbid condition that I will need to deal with. Does anyone think my PCP should put me on medication before the surgery? It is 160/100 which is unusually high for me. By the way, my insurance is already approved and I had to switch surgeons midstream. I may not have the surgery as late as Jan. or Feb.
