A member asked:

I've had the flu for like 4 days now also had a stomach flu at the same time my bp has been higher than normal is that ok or should i worry? 128/85

OK: Your BP is normal, albeit, 85 is in the higher end of the normal range. Illness of any type will raise your BP so the flu is the likely explanation for your BP and it will improve when you're better.
