Remember that only the physician can interpret your blood pressure values. Never venture self-
diagnosis or self-treatment. We recommend you to discuss your blood pressure values with your
physician. He can advise you on any measures that may be good to take.
The blood pressure is changing
constantly. You should not be
frustrated by two or three bad
readings, and don’t fly into high
spirits if a few readings are
good. The blood pressure
changes during the day as
during the month. It is also
influenced by the time of year
and the temperature. Monitor
your blood pressure regularly
and keep a full record of all
readings. This allows you to
make a competent judgement.
