Is this ok?
You are more than okay Sandy...doctors like to see those kind of numbers on their patients.
Calm and cool. It's not about the numbers but about the addiction in reaching for our b/p machines. I've been guilty as well at times.
Having one of those days today. I am having wave after wave of anxiety hitting me today. I know the cause my husband has my car, I have no car, and his truck is going to cause almost $800 when it's done being fixed under warranty company. That a lot of money to me and I can't relax because that's bill and food money I have to use. Needless to say my heart rate isn't high today because of my anxiety it's low and so that's throwing me off too.
I use to do that almost for two years and I finally stopped , I do it only now when I’m feeling sick or something
Hi sandy,
Taking your BP once or twice a day is fine, especially if you are on any BP meds.
don't be too concern about the actual numbers.It is the trend or average that is more indicative of Hypertension.
the new norm for BP is 130/80 p=72.
Take care.
