My blood pressure always spikes when I go to any doctor. They call it “White Coat”. What I did to prove to myself and my doctor that I didn’t have high blood pressure was to take it at home, morning and night. I found that in stressful moments or if I worried about it being high, It would spike. Overall, my blood pressure is fine. I still sorry about it a lot cause that’s what I do :(. My anxiety is due to health worries even though I’m healthy. Ugh! Anyway, the blood pressure monitor can be bought just about any store. I got mine off Amazon. I took it to my doctors office after 30 days of recordings.
