아는분이 고혈압 전단계이신데 평소에는 잘 관리가 되다가도 병원에만 가시면 신경써서 그런지 높게 나오시더라구요 계속 안정적으로 관리 하고 계서서 병원에서는 괜찮다고 하시네요
Question) I get high blood pressure readings whenever I visit the hospital for check-ups, and I'm worried.
I don't have very good blood pressure, and since there is a family history, I regularly check it at home and manage it accordingly.
There are some fluctuations, but even if it's not at the level of hypertension, I am always paying attention to it.
However, whenever I go to the hospital and get tested, my blood pressure readings are high, similar to hypertension, which worries me.
The doctor said that if I ask, the hospital's reading might be higher (white coat hypertension), and I can use home measurements as a standard. Still, since my readings are always high, I feel anxious.
I'm curious if there are people at the hospital with high blood pressure and whether they receive special management.
