Hi,
Can someone please tell me how to relax when I've having my blood pressure taking. I have a severe case of white-coat syndrome and work myself up for hours before having it taken.
I had pre-eclampsia with both my pregnancies which has set off this fear even though my youngest is now 3 years old.
Any help would be appreciate. Thanks

then youll have a better idea of what your resting BP is like
It was the nurse who did it yesterday, it makes no difference who does it unfortunately. I wouldn't mind but it wasn't even particularly high, 140/85.
Will give a truer measurement of your bp.
Then adjust average figures by +12/7.
Hope this helps.
didn't read all the way through.
