Fluctuating bp
I am on bp medication, at home my bp is very low, sometimes even as low as 95/65. But at the doctor office it's sometimes as high as 140/85. Doctor says my home bp is accurate since it's taken in a relaxed environment, whereas clinic environment usually involves stress so bp goes up. He says if home bp continues to show low readings, we can stop medication. I want to continue taking medicine lifelong because only home bp is low but clinic bp is high. Am I making the right decision?
