I dislike going; so that's probably a factor. Even with the meds, which I finally gave up and do take, it goes up to a higher level when I go in but not like it once did.

And that is odd. Very odd. I was a Navy Hospital Corpsman in the 60's and knew all about BP's, TPR's and other things medical. I even knew how to pronounce sphygmomanometer. Heck, I was the 'White Coat'. Yet, I still show an increase in BP every time I visit the doctor. I have a feeling that if they let me take my own BP readings, I would be free of the syndrome.Stevenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10446337419977796973noreply@blogger.com
