HIGHER OR LOWER (2)

Sorry guys not felt great, amended last post twice but it wont let me do it again so im reposting to try and get it right. Woke up this morning in AF, took 200 mg flecainide, checked BP which was133/117, I know the first figure is fine but the second diastolic is way to high, I dont check my BP all the time but when I have ive noticed the same pattern of the first figure often being normal but second being too high, has anyone else had similar? is this something i need to report to my cardiologist (whom I dont get to see because of covid issues- im sure im not the only one ) my apologies ofr confusing with two posts x

I always get this type of BP reading only when in AF. The gap between the two is not large enough and as you say the diastolic pressure is too high. My BP when not in AF is fine, with the help of tablets of course. Do you get more normal readings when not in AF?
