Maybe I Don't Have High Blood Pressure. Maybe I Have Mood Swings

Per my agreement with my doctor, I went out and bought a blood pressure monitor.

I just took my blood pressure and it was 126/69 and my heart rate was 63 beats per minute. This is totally fine!

Of course, at the doctor's office, my bp was something like 149/80. I don't remember.

But 1) this is the first time I had seen this doctor before 2) I was sitting in my underwear 3) I was pissed off with the doctor because they were 30 minutes late opening their office this morning, so my appointment was delayed.

So, maybe it was just stress.

On the other hand, my high blood pressure has been noted on previous occasions.

We'll see.

I really don't want to have to take blood pressure medicine every day for the rest of my life. I'm not even halfway through my life!
