So I’ve had high blood pressure on and off for 4 years now. I was off meds for a while then went back on in June. Things were good whenever I checked. I take 30mg a day. My pressure is pretty much normal when I take it randomly.
Recently I’ve been under a ton of stress, and I’m going back to work on the 13th for the first time in a year and a half and my daughter is going to school for the first time. I’m depressed and anxious. It’s been bad. I decided to take my pressure because my head felt like it was tingling and felt pressure in one spot. It was 150/103. Over the next 2 hours the top number went down to normal but the bottom number lingers between 90-97. I’m petrified I’m having a stroke or something is going on with my brain. Why would the bottom number stay so high? Now I’m obsessively taking it and getting no sleep.
