DearWelcome to ChatDoctorWe understand your concerns went through your details. Frequent checking of blood pressure can trick the readings itself. You must go to your doctor according to your given appointment and in the meantime, you should not check your blood pressure unnecessarily. Let your doctor determine your BP. To say you have hypertension, the doctor might check your BP several times at several hours of a day within a weeks period. The average is taken as your blood pressure. Stress, anxiety etc. can cause temporary hypertension. Please let your doctor determine your blood pressure. In the meantime, stop worrying and exercise. Take care.
