Brief Answer:
Record the high blood pressure values for at least 2 weeks and let me know.
Detailed Answer:
Hello, Thank you for using "Ask a doctor" service.
I read your query and I understand your concern.
But in order to say that someone has high blood pressure you need to measure it for some time, while you are far away from meals, relaxed, 15 min sat down, no smoking, not talking at that moment. I would recommend to measure it morning and evening. Record everything for 1-2 weeks and let me see the results. I will be happy to advice.
In your age though I do not expect a high blood pressure to be worried about. Anyway your lifestyle it is important. So if in any case, even if your blood pressure will need to be treated, you should first start for 3 months a lifestyle where you can loose some weight, and start exercising daily. This is primarily and very important.
Hope this is helpful. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Kind regards, Dr. Klarida Papaqako, General and Family physician.
