Hello Dr,
Sorry to ask this question I am embarrassed to ask but I am helpless..
My weight is 120 kg.. today the nurse took my BP, the cuff size was small,she made me hold it with other hand and BP was 130/80
The Dr took my BP again, the cuff was smaller, he made me hold it, didn't even ask me to roll my sleeve, BP was 140/80 .. he prescribed Telvas 20 MG.. are these readings correct? Should I take medicine? Please guide 🙏. .. also my Ecg was done it's normal..
