Hi all,
I bought a BP monitor yesterday and today decided to take my blood pressure. I was quite anxious taking it and the first reading really shocked me... 180/95... i then did another one which was 172/95.
Now an hour later i have calmed down a bit and it's 150/93. Which still sounds really high to me. I don't understand why it's so high, i'm 34 and not overweight.
I called my GP to schedule an appointment and they booked me for money. Hopefully i will survive until then... :wacko:
It might be to do with anxiety but these BP readings really scare me... what can i do??
