Why is my BP all over the place?

In this video i discuss why people who suffer from high BP have very variable readings and also why sometimes people with high blood pressure are told that they are dizzy because they have low blood pressure. If you would like to speak with me please contact me on www.yorkcardiology.co.uk or [e-mail] (which is also my Facebook id)

[@xtalnavz160]

Thank you so much doc.. 15mins ago i was so worried with my BP . I have anxiety attacks usually after getting up in the morning and i am so terrified thinking that my blood pressure might be so high that i might have a stroke or cardiac arrest.. you explained it so well doc. You're a big help to us. Please continue making videos. It really eases our worries.. thank you doc.

I had been having morning blood pressure trend around 144/90 and 136/85 in the evening. At medical offices it would be in the range of 150/90. So, I a adopted an overweight Weimaranner dog and began walking 3 to 6 miles every day, as well as a low carbohydrate diet. After 3 weeks, morning blood pressure 123/74 and evening 116/72. Amazing how quickly and dramatically its gone down. I will be forest walking daily from now on.

[@nonicosio]

low carbs and fasting did it for me; from 8 medicines, 3 for blood pressure, the rest for heart and anxiety, now all meds for BP ar not needed,, it reas similar to yours; have but 2 medication for heart; due to aortic valve replacement; soon after the surgery i was walking 10 miles a day, no pain ...nice to hear from you

[@karlabritfeld7104]

The low carb diet is doing it

[@sonyas7422]

Hello that's great you lowered you BP so quickly! If you don't mind me asking...When you say low carb how many carbs and what types of carbs do you eat? I just started BP med in May and I think I worry too much about everything. What to eat/drink and what NOT to while also taking the BP med. Sodium, carbs, beets, potassium, magnesium, what vitamins. It's a lot to process after diagnosis. Thanks in advance.

My doctor never explain BP like this. I have very low BP in the morning heartrate around 120-140.

[@marylockwood4400]

I have been having a lot of stress lately and last time when I went to my cardiologist, my bp was sky high. He wants to do an angiogram on me. I got home, talked to my daughter and decided against it. Later in the day, after I had time to rest a little, my bp went back to normal. So emailed my doctor to tell him I'll take a pass on the angiogram for now, and told him my bp is fine now, then I asked him when I should go back to see him again. He said 6 months! So I guess he doesn't think my elevated bp is that serious. My daughter also said I should stop taking my bp one after another because the anxiety would increase my bp. I think I need to learn to relax more.

It has reduced my stress level and I finally understand what is happening to me. Before it was a roller coaster. I dreaded to take my readings at hone because of not knowing what it would be. It is very stressful to say the least. My Dr said not to drive until the higher dosage had a chance to stabilize. Thanks again.

Thanks for sharing your vast knowledge with us. Heart issues are a very traumatic time for most people, it's like telling someone you've got a rattlesnake in your sleeping bag - it's your center of focus all the time. lol. Unfortunately, most medical doctors talk to us on a "clinical" level, i.e. they understand the situation one way and we see it in another - usually in the worst possible light. You talk to us, not at us, and allow us to truly understand what's going on - that's a gift for sure. Keep up your magnificent work, I for one recommend your channel to everyone I know.
