I am sorry but I am confused. I appreciate you are concerned and probably rather annoyed but

Your blood pressure on single readings was high

I assume the ECG was normal. I also assume the exercise ECG was normal.

Have you now had a 24 hour monitor for blood pressure or are you just taking occasional readings yourself? The lower reading or diastolic is what we are really interested in not the higher or systolic reading.

I am afraid if your 24 hour readings are high you really need to have this investigated separately from your flying medical. However his would be very rare at your age which is why I want to know exactly how the readings were taken
