And thank you very much for all your articles. VERY useful.

Thank you 😃 glad to hear that. And great - I was hoping to get the excuse to dive into exercise as a method to lower blood pressure. Thank you for your reply🙏

Thank you for the article. As usual they’re interesting and informative. I’m one of those “white coat “ people. I normally take my blood pressure at home once a month which is always normal. But when I have my annual physical it’s very high.

Great that you measure once a month! This phenomenon is so much more common than people think. I hope this encourages people to measure their blood pressure more at home. The equipment for it today is great and reliable.

Regarding white coat hypertension, is there data supporting the assumption that normal bp’s at home means one can be reassured that she/he does not have increased cardiovascular risk? What would a continuous bp monitor show in such people throughout a whole day?
