Answers:
Your blood pressure is high but, it could be " white coat syndrome"!. This can happen when you know that you have to see your Doc!. However, your blood pressure should of been rechecked before you left the office!. Usually, when this is done ( the recheck), the blood pressure reading can be different!. Frequently, if this is done, the reading is lower!. Are you more stressed than usual !?!? Limit your salt intake, caffeine intake, and try to reduce stress level ( easier said than done)!. I would recommend that you call your Doc's office and insist that you have your blood pressure checked sooner than 2 weeks!. I hope that this is helpful!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Yeah, you have high blood pressure and that can turn into serious health problems and conditions, (hypertension, perhaps!?) So I would get it re-checked!. But don't fret over it!. Hypertension isn't that bad, or any other condition!. So take it slow, make sure you don't get stressed out, and get plenty of water, sleep, and good, healthy food, like fiber and fruits and vegetables!. And if you are REALLY worried about it, put in an extra hour of exercise!. That's what I do when I get stressed!Www@Answer-Health@Com
Gee, lots of good answers, but I agree with you that all those numbers are kinda confusing!.
Last time I went to the doctor, I almost forgot my appointment (what's that condition that starts with "A"!?)!. Anyway, I was in such as rush to get there, find a spot in the stupid parking garage, then practically ran from the parking garage to their office and barely made it in time!. So I wasn't surprised when my blood pressure reading was high!.
But high blood pressure is one of those things that sometimes sneaks up on people as they get OLDER!
Keep your appointment and leave in plenty of time so you aren't rushed like I was!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Both numbers are high!.!.!.definitely get them re-checked! You can get it checked at Wal-Mart at the pharmacy instead of waiting 2 weeks!.If they thought it was "just the stress" of being there they would of re-checked it again at the end of you appointment!.Keep you Dr's appointment!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
If the doctor did not prescribe blood pressure medicine at your visit, do not worry!. He probably wants you to return to see if your two readings are similar!. If the second reading is lower, the first reading was high because of some outside factors!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
that is higher than it should be, but they may be thinking that it was high just because of a stressful day, or lets see a cat bite or something like that!.!.!.!.!.have it rechecked!.!.!.please!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
