Real bp and anxiety bp
Plz answer this question as bp phobia is taking over my life. my heart reports are normal( 2d echo, ecg, tmt, x ray). and As many say if a person gets high bp it takes a few days or weeks to get back to normal. But what if a person is getting reading like 140-150/70-80 when he had anxiety and then 120-130/70-80 in the next few minutes or next hour and then it stayed in the same normal range. Will these temporary spikes be considered as high bp?? When I visited the doctor my first reading was 147/78 then after 15 minutes it was normal 122/74. So if a person has a real bp then wouldn't it be the same whenever we checked?. My mind is never getting off from bp readings even they coming in normal range i always think what if I have some wrong with my heart or what if my is high when I am not checking. I thought about taking ambp but my anxiety about bp can cause inaccurate reading if I get anxious during 24 ambp day. What to do and how can I confirm that I don't have high bp. plz advice
