Can you tell me is it bad to take your blood pressure too much?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No but...: Checking your blood pressure too many times every day may cause too much anxiety and falsely elevated your blood pressure. Checking as many times as 2-3 times per day would be acceptable but not always necessary if not having symptoms or very abnormal readings. You may try checking 1-2 times per day but at different times of day. Log your readings and review with your doctor.
