What Causes Persistent Fluctuations In BP Levels?
Am a female, 89 years of age. Have taken medicine to control blood pressure for YEARs! Moved from Atlanta, Ga to Dallas, Tx last Oct. and failed to regularly take my Meds after moving on a scheduled basis, ended up couple months later with BP203. Had ALL blood tests, everything fine, put on BP Meds, however, my BP is not consistent in readings. Between am. And p.m. Meds can have a top number of 90 or 156. Today, the PA took me off Amlodopine and Lise optic and put me on 160 of Valsartan 2timrs a day, dosage total 320. Ordered all kinds blood work which I had done in January by cardiologist and rheumatologist, all blood fine.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, as such you do not have any symptoms then it is just nothing to worry now for the blood pressure you go on reading it every after two hours then it will show you different reading and this is not the sign of anything wrong, ideally blood pressure need to be read by physician for accuracy hope this information helps.
