Questions about Blood Pressure -1Q1: Why do my blood pressure results vary from reading to reading? A1: Published studies show that a given person’s blood pressure can change by up to 20mm within a day, based on activity levels, food/drink intake, stress, etc. That’s why it’s important to take your blood pressure on a regular basis, and review the overall trend of your blood pressure readings with your doctor. Q2: Why are my readings different at home than at the doctor’s office? A2: Along with the normal variances of blood pressure daily, there are other factors such as 'White Coat Hypertension,' a condition in which a blood person’s blood pressure rises above its usual level when it is measured in a doctor’s office or clinical setting. There is also 'Masked Hypertension,' in which a person’s blood pressure falls below its usual level when it is measured in a medical environment.
