[dandyp]

Hi my name is dani i've just joined he site as i feel its all getting a bit on top of me at the moment. its been so good to read that others are experiencing the same stuff i am! at the moment my main problem is that i am worried that sometimes my blood pressure is high and im only 24. This begun during the period when i convinced myself i had a brain tumour. i have now had a brain scan but i now am worried that i caused my blood pressure to go up. i feel like im in a viscous circle and is it normal for our bllod pressure to go up...has anyone else experienced this?? be good 2 hear from u danix

Hi Dani, Welcome to NMP, the answer to your question is yes we can make our blood pressure go up. The simple fact that we worry about something makes our blood pressure rise. An ideal reading for someone of your age would be 120/80 BUT don't worry if it is higher than this because the more you worry about it the higher it will go but you can rest assured that even if it is high during the day because you are worrying it WILL go down when you are asleep. I had a reading only yesterday of 168/90 so I was asked to have it done again this morning when it had gone down to 135/75. Please try not to worry too much about it.

:)Thanks 4 all your messages they were really helpful and reassuring. My blood pressures varries loads but i have had at highest 140/90 or even 150/99 which really paniced me. at the moment the last few were bout 120/90 or lower 117/85 they change all the time im just worried that getting high readings like that is not normal.Yes it is probably when i'm worried and i've been having aparticuarly tough time at the moment i just hope that it isn't a long lasting thing and will have bad affects. i'm hoping the fact it fluctuates is a good thing. let me know if anyone has any comments and thanks again...danixx
