So I am at the Dr. and I know I get very uptight being there and I don't know why cuz I really love my Dr. he is awesome and has really helped me A LOT. Anyway the past 2 visits my BP was high so that is why I was there today to recheck it ... WELL MY GOD it was 165/110 I almost freaked .... I did tell him I have taken it a few times ( my mom has a home BP kit) and it's been totally fine. So before putting me on meds he gave me a BP machine to take home and monitor it for a month. Now get this .... within 30 mins after leaving the Dr. my BP was 130/74 ...It is possible for it to drop THAT MUCH??? I am now driving myself nuts thinking this machine he gave me doesn't work.
He told me to check it 3 times a day. And so far every single time I have taken it it's been in normal range....
Any thoughts????
