A member asked:

How high can bp shoot up if stress? like 70 points for bottom number?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not usually: Hypertension is a status of your BP not a one time reading. What i mean is people can have a headache or family crisis and have a BP through the roof. The root problem needs to be treated and sometimes BP elevation is not the problem but a symptom of a problem.
