Joy,
Your husband wont have a significant decrease in blood pressure after only 2 weeks. Assuming no other factors are effecting his blood pressure, he should have noticed a slight initial decrease in his systolic pressure by several points. Give it another several weeks and he sould notice a difference. Remember if he has other factors effecting his blood pressure, then he may not notice a change at all.
Good luck.
