Thanks for the reply , the reason I'm frustrated is that I never thought blood pressure would be an issue I even joked about, I was more worried about eye sight or been colour blind. It was just a shock, I suppose I'm annoyed that the cardiologist told me I passed. I took my 24 hour blood pressure reading yesterday and it was a regular 135, and sometimes 112-135 . During the night it was 115-120. My doctor does not think it's high bp he wrote a cover letter stating that he checked my bp once again and it was a regular 130 and that the high readings on my 24 hour bp reading was due to white coat syndrome . Do you think having my doctor write a cover letter would be helpful in gaining my medical .
