Anyone else have to have their blood pressure checked from time to time?
When I go to the surgery or the hospital it is always much higher than normal (white coat syndrome I think they call it!).
The 'normal' BP is 120/80 and mine sits somewhere between 122/71 and 150/83 but on the last visit to hospital it checks in way over, causing a letter to the GP about a change in medication.
Makes me wonder what my normal is going to be in the future, too low to stand up straight?

Anyone else get this annoying problem?
