How do you find out if you have white coat hypertension? Doctor says my BP is high+ pulse. 120/80 100 I don't want pills. I want to try dietexercise
Check BP often. In the clinical setting we can put a monitor on someone to randomly monitor BP over a day.A home technique is to get a dependable wrist BP monitor and check your BP several times a day at home or work. I don't know many who would medicate a 120/80 before trying a salt reduced diet/ reduced caffeine or nicotine and other lifestyle changes first.
