Today at work I started to feel off and had a nurse take my bp.
#1 138/90
#2 140/82
Taken 15m apart. I am certainly overweight which is why I am religious monitoring both sugar and bp. Generally my BP has ran around 123-125/80-82. I've never had an issue with high BP outside of pregnancy, or in my last pregnancy.
I saw my OB last Tues and BP was ok he said.
I had a weekend of higher sodium, less water and more sweets (holiday weekend indulgence)
I just wondered if its possible these higher BPS are just temporary? Or once they are high they stay high or get higher?
Happy to hear any experiences.
Thankfully I am seeing my endocrinologist tomorrow and although she isn't an OB I am sure she can discuss my BP concerns. My next OB appt isn't until Oct. 12.
