Just been put on medication for this. I'm being controlled by my GP at the moment until it settles down.

@Wayweash8762 Monitoring high blood pressure at home is very important for early detection and better health control. Using a reliable digital BP monitor, checking readings at the same time daily, and keeping a log can help you understand your condition more clearly. Always follow your doctor’s advice if readings stay high. [This content has been moderated by an administrator.]

@44Plifloyoan Thank you. Blood pressure settled down after being put on Ramipril as an extra blood pressure medication to Atenolol . I always have high cholesterol and have tried 5 different types of statins but my body just won't take them. Far too many side effects.

Yes it’s true blood pressure is very serious but when you start monitoring it yourself it can b confusing as if you go by the recommended of 120/80 when you check it it never seems to come anywhere near those figures,and if you’re easily worried it’s seems you need a doctor quick.but as we know no matter how many times you check it always a different reading,so I suppose if your feeling good best not panic and wait till your more relaxed and check it again.then you’ll find it’s fairly ok

Hi everyone, how are you feeling today?
If you're living with high blood pressure or another heart-related condition, keeping track of your blood pressure at home can be a helpful way to manage your health between appointments.
