High Diastolic Pressure?!


Question: High Diastolic Pressure!?
My wife is having high diastolic and systolic is perfectly fine!. The pressure reading are 120/93!. She been to GP 2-3 times to check her BP but everytime her diastolic is coming up more than 90, which isnt good!. We had a car accident 2 months ago and she was very very stressed during that time!. But now she is perfectly fine and things are very normal now!. My question is:
1!. Is this high diastolic stress related, but she is not having any stress at the moment!. Is it the previous stress still have the effects on blood pressure!?
2!. What should she do to bring it down as she been eating healthy, doing excercise and feeling happy too!.
3!. What are the possible fear of this high diastolic pressure!?

GP said you dont have high blood pressure problem and its only stress related!.

It could be stress!. Does she ever check her BP at home or at the grocery store/pharmacy!? There is a medical diagnosis of White Coat Syndrome where the blood pressure is only elevated in the physicians office!. That is also a possibility!.

Of course, healthy diet and exercise is a cure all!

When your diastolic pressure is high, your heart is under increased pressure all the time!. This can cause cardiac remodeling (where the heart muscle changes shape over time to accommodate for the increased pressures), which can lead to a dilated heart muscle, high blood pressure, other vascular diseases, and strokes!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
