A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hypertension: Generally it is advisable to make diagnosis of high BP by taking BP measurements at 2-3 different appointments. If it remains unclear then ambulatory BP monitoring can be done where a device measures BP over 24 hours period. I hope you do have a follow up appointment as well.
