Iam suffering from anxiety related hypertension. Iam using bp tab olsertain  h20. Iam taking bp readings by automated bp monitor. Each time iam taking 3 readings always my first reading little bit high, why because during first reading Ian very anxious and excited so it shows little bit high. After one minute I feel very free the second reading shows very normal. And third reading shows very normal like second reading. Which reading should be considered. Pls suggest Ex. 1 reading 145/80 2 reading 115/72 3 reading 114/72.
