question about blood pressure?!
Question: Question about blood pressure?
when you have a high reading, it doesn't necessarily mean you have hyperthension but what about the opposite? if you have a normal reading, can you say that your blood pressure is in control?
I'm asking this because I`ve had a few high readings but after some changes in my life the other day I checked it and it was 125/79, (pretty good!) (not optimal but for someone who had a one of 150/95 2 weeks ago, it is great)
I'm 29, weigh 170 lbs
thanks for your comments

Answers:
Your blood pressure can vary. Track it over the course of a month and get readings at different times of the day. If you don't have your own cuff, using one at a Wal-Mart or Walgreens works fine too.
Some people have "white coat syndrome". Inotherwords, when they are in the presence of medical professionals, their pressure goes up.
Keep track and keep on top of stress in your life. Eat well and exercise. RELAX!!!
yeah, I'm pretty sure your blood pressure's in control. Maybe you were stressed out when it was high.
