Blood pressure varies significantly throughout the day and is often measured incorrectly at doctors offices. It's a good idea to get a home cuff BP machine and keep track of it yourself after reading up on how to use the machine. Otherwise you might get recommended medicine incorrectly, or you could get a false sense of security.
