About a month ago I went to my regular doctor for a check up. The nurse took my BP and it was up, 149/xx ( don't remember the lower value). About twenty minutes later the Doctor checked it again and it was down to 136/xx. Last week I was at the dentist office and they checked my BP and again it was up, 148/xx. Yesterday I was at another dentist to see about having a wisdom tooth pulled and they checked my BP and it was up to 164/xx. Yikes.
When I got home I pulled out our portable BP monitor and checked it. Much lower at 136/82. This morning I checked it and it was 128/78 which is about what it has been running the last few years. I know the my BP gizmo is accurate because DW had her doctor check it against his a few months ago.
My only conclusion is the White Coat Syndrome. They're coming to take me away.
Anyone else ever have this come up?
