mis-types and auto corrects leads cock leeds

I've been getting some headaches recently when I've tried exercising, managed to get to see my gp (that's a tough ask) and he's checked a few bits my blood pressure is 154/96... higher than he and I would like.

Suggestions for lowering said pressure?

Ladies I'm thinking a relaxing massage would work.

Reduce salt. Possibly lose weight (I’ve not looked at pics so don't know if overweight or not). Try and relax!! Easier said than done!

You might need medication, it’s nothing to fear just hopefully a daily pill, worth it to protect your health! Good luck!

I wouldn’t worry to much about 1 high BP reading.

The stress of the doctors alone could do that.

Get yourself a home BP monitor, you can get good ones that upload readings to your phone.

Monitor it over a month or so, morning and evening and look for patterns.

Avoid BP medication if you can, use other methods.

Don't worry about it. I'm assuming they have asked you back for regular checks. I tried going things suggested to lower mine but it was still high so I had to go on medication. 1 tablet a day isn't a hardship if it can help prevent something serious happening.

I blame stress on mine but not much I can do about that.

Agree here... hubby’s sky rockets at the surgery. It’s situational anxiety for him so try getting a home test for a more accurate reading (average of three).

I remember your previous post, glad you saw the Dr.

Did he measure your hydration levels?

Dehydration will cause high blood pressure.

I've had clients referred to me, been on BP meds for years, when scanned all severely dehydrated, admit to drinking less than ½L of clear fluid a day.

Majority are now off or on massively lower doses just from increasing fluid intake

You're too small for your blood. Try getting really fat so that there's more room for it. thank me later.

Buy yourself a home tester, mine goes through the roof in any medical building and is fine outside it

Other than that I wouldn't mess about with any home remedies, if you're overweight a lot lose some and otherwise get medicated. Also request a 24 hour test.

I had three high readings at the GP. Then I was given a hone monitoring kit to take readings over a few days and then returned it to surgery.

After looking at my average readings, then doc decided to put me on low dose medication.

Your GP should do the monitoring for you.

never use one of the monitor things as you'll be constantly checking it and worrying.

reduce salt that's correct, only 2 or 3 cups of coffee a day, reduce stress levels.

if something is getting to much, stop. deep cleansing breath and take a short walk from it.

start slowly with any changes and go from there.

good luck

“White coat” anxiety is a common issue with blood pressure , the 3 readings thing is a regular method used. Home meter is also a very good idea.

Breathing exercises can lower it and beetroot juice works, but be prepared for red urine. You can buy bottled beetroot drinks , but I find the taste overpowering

Drink plenty of water as I'm constantly told by my doctor

My blood pressure is now controlled by meds but it was extremely high before I started taking them
