I am suffering from white coat hypertension I am using bp tab olmezest h20. I am taking bp readings at home by automated bp monitor. During first reading I am very nervous and anxiety it shows 145/79, after two minutes I am very free the second shows as 120/75, and third shows as 115/70, remaining 4,5, 6 all readings are very normal like 2 and third. My doubt is which reading should be considered? High or low readings I mean first or next readings? Please suggest. Regards.

Hi, In blood pressure monitoring posture, side of hand matters .you are using automated monitor so can't sure about readings. If you had any symptoms of high bp that time, it might be actually high .just check with mercurial apparatus.
