NWR: Just got home from the doctor...

I went to the doctor about my wrist that i hurt several weeks ago....and instead of coming home with an answer about my wrist....i was told i have high blood pressure and need to be checked again in a week. Of course now i am really freaking out because it was very high. Time for a strict diet. Just a little more stress to add on....

Re: NWR: Just got home for doctor...

certain factors can increase your blood pressure at the time its checked. Do you normally have high blood pressure. And did your doc give you any info about lowering it?

Well when i was in the emergency room over a yr ago i was told i had high blood pressure but i figured it was due to the fact i was in the emergency room. When i go for my yearly gyn exams...i have asked and they said it was normal....so im not sure. I know it has to do with gaining some weight back that i lost several years ago. My aunt is a nurse and is going to test it each week and im going to strictly watch what i eat so i can bring it down on my own hopefully.

well that is great that your aunt can help you and im sure she will give you some tips too. Good luck

I have the opposite problem, my blood pressure is low so that can cause problems sometimes. Just ask what you can do to make it better and i am sure you can get it lower
