Not to worry.  Are you taking any medications? Chart 3 different days BP at same time not after any activity. If its significant then should get treated.

Hello, Its ideal to get ABPM if your BP is fluctuating a lot. But if at home all your readings are persistently normal and only a single reading higher in hospital does not need ABPM. Take care
