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.
My dr. is monitoring my bp for about a week, over the weekend it was 174/105, 185/109 and this am it was 137/92. I was hosp. overnight last week due to chest pain. All tests were negative. Is it normal to monitor bp this long? I am 49, 5'2" and 220 lbs.
You need to take medication, as it is dangerous to leave such high blood pressure without treatment. For now don't worry , as the tests were normal, but talk to your doctor to prescribe a medication.
Take care
