High Blood pressure
I felt uneasy and went to cardiologist. My BP came 170/110. It happens everytime when doctor measures. It drops after I come home and measure it
I didn't took medicine prescribed by doctor as I wanted to monitor for few days before starting lifelong medicine.
Since last 4 days after doctor consultation,my BP is in range of 140/90. It has never increased above 145.
Should I do for medicine or wait by doing lifestyle modification and see?
