A member asked:
My husband has bad tooth & needs it extracted, when he went to surgeon he would not pull it due to bp being102 on bottom, he is under doctors care & takes meds for bp & its always normal, probably nerves, what can he do, he is in pain and needs help?

You'll need to have the oral surgeon work things out with your husband's physician. You may be correct that the higher BP was due to anxiety, but the oral surgeon has the final say in performing the procedure.
