Hello!
Welcome on HCM!
Regarding your concern, I would explain that your blood pressure values are perfectly normal.
So, there is nothing to worry about!
The high blood pressure values at the doctor's office are related to White coat syndrome. This syndrome is explained by the anxiety and fear related to the medical consult. But it is not concerning and those isolated high blood pressure values are not harmful to your heart.
I recommend continuing being active and stay on a healthy diet (Mediterranean diet is recommended).
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Kind regards,
Dr. Iliri
