Thread: High blood pressure?

    High blood pressure?

    This is probably nothing, but yesterday I went to the doctor's office at university, because I had what seemed like an infected toe. Anyway they did vitals like normal, and my BP was 147/87. Note that I'm 21, MILDLY obese, and was fairly tired due to recent lack of sleep. I know it's probably nothing, just want some reassurance. I intend to start exercising after term ends.

    It is not that high to be honest and could be a one-off reading so I wouldn't worry about it
