then it will drop down to 184/100.
Its your blood pressure at home that is important.

take my bp and it would read 135/90 on the left arm, then the right arm would read 150/112. I would wait 10 minutes and get a completely different reading.

That is normal - you're probably stressing about what the next reading is going to be!
What is wierd when I come back from a brisk half hour walk my bp is usually
: 135/104 lower than when I am sitting LOL.

That is normal - after exercise your BP will be lower.

I keep telling him that when I go to the office it will always rise higher and higher because of his attitude towards my high blood pressure, he is always doom and gloom. Then increases a dose or adds another pill.
: I really don't think he will ever get my bottom reading down to the required 80.

Change of doc????
