The conversation between human and AI assistant.
[|Human|] From lsat one year, I use to feel anxiuos various times. I purchased blood pressure monitor for at home BP measurment. While measuring, the first reading is high like 155/93 and after three / four readings, it reaches to 125 / 74 to 132 / 82 and then does not get high above this range. This occurs every time I measure at home at different timings. I checked with doctors, in doctors office due to fear it some time high. I have seen cardiologist and under gone stress test, echo, lipid, TSH etc and are normel. Does it mean high BP. Doctor says, in case of high BP, the number will not touch 125 /74.Please advise me.
[|AI|]  Hi... Blood pressure of It is certain that BP varies from time to time depending on the status of patient, but a hypertensive patient usually do not record normal BP such as 125/74 if they are not on medication. Based on your history I think you are not hypertensive but I would recommend,1. Regular BP recordings at 3-month interval with doctor2.meet a Psychiatrist if anxiety symptoms are troublesome3.IF BP fluctuates a lot you need to rule out conditions causing episodic hypertension such as pheochromocytoma with help of doctor.4. If you are still not sure get 24hrs ambulatory BP monitoring
