Been really stressed last few days, went to the docs about another matter which was fine, Doc took my blood pressure 5 times as it was reading high.
Long and short of it go back in 2 weeks for another reading.
Readings are irrelevant at this point, don’t want to hear horror stories either.
In the past I have noticed that the old fashioned way (pump by hand)always gives a better reading for me, could it be the electronic one giving false readings ?
I am feeling anxious/stressed (told information about my mother 20 years after she died) at the moment so was bound to be higher.
Not ruling out white coat syndrome, never had it in the past so don’t see it as a factor at the moment.
So how can I lower/get it lower before next reading ?
Exercise/ change of diet/breathing exercises ?
Become less stressed ?
Bachs rescue remedy ?
Thanks in advance , please no horror stories !
