Folks,
I have been a "white coater" for some time now, and the usual conventional treatments of diet, exercise, supplements have not really helped. I know from what I've read that (a) white coat usually evolved into sustained hypertension; (b) white coat does NOT respond well to medicines for blood pressure.
My numbers at the doctors are usually around 144-146/80 with the nurse, and 128-132/80 with the doctor. At home, they can range from 112-mid 130s systolic (usually in mid 120s) and the diastolic is always from 65-75.
I am wondering if any of you have had successful hypnotherapy, "emotional freedom technique," or anything that has helped bring your reactive-hypertension under control. I am frustrated and concerned about this. Thanks!
