Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I go to donate plasma twice a week and everytime I go, their machine says my blood pressure is high and i have to wait 10 minutes to have it rechecked. What can I do to lower my pressure before I get there/ I do not take any medications and have never had an issue with HBP.
At first I would advise you to monitor your blood pressure to see the overall data during the week. If you have high blood pressure only at hospital, there is nothing to worry, it is because of stress, it is not dangerous, just don't worry, it will regulate gradually. If you have high blood pressure data during day, I would advise you try to cut the amount of salt intake, be much in fresh air, exercise regularly, avoid fast food.
Hope I could help you
Wishing you good health
