Whitecoat syndrome

[five-alive]

I am in the same boat. Typical BP at home is 130/75, but at the doctors it can skyrocket to ridiculous (stroke) numbers. Luckily I have found a doc that allows me to bring in my home monitor that stores up to 30 readings in memory, and he is satisfied with that. I would like to learn more about mind control though, cause I would like to cure myself altogether.

Five alive, I do a similar thing, but mine does not have the memory. I record my readings on charts provided with the gadget and bring six months worth with me. Works every time.

One high reading does not matter. Any experienced AME knows what "white coat syndrome" is. There is no failing BP anymore. The recommended guideline is 155/90, but that is a guideline only.
