It covers other things too, like the terrible pain that sent you to the Drs disappearing as soon as you see them.

Nevermind, it just got cancelled and now I’m pretty for no reason again!

Take a selfie and post it to your friends.

It’s when someone’s blood pressure is higher at the doctor’s office, vs. normally. Some people get nervous or anxious having their blood pressure taken by a doctor, so it can be higher in-office than if you take it at home. It’s pretty common, my husband gets it sometimes.

Thank You, I was cleared, but I’m sure it’s lower at home.

The doctor wasn’t sure I would be here because his office has been texting my landline for confirmation, lol.

I have HBP, controlled with medication, but when I go to the doc, even if it’s nothing serious, it’s through the roof.

They’ll usually take it four times (twice in each arm) before they’re satisfied. At home, it’s always in normal range.

The thing is…I never feel particularly anxious when I’m at any doc, even when it’s something more serious.
