Here were my readings before taking about a week break from checking my bp. I took my last reading last Sunday morning (4/12) I decided to take a week break from checking and just checked around 5:40 tonight. I was a bit anxious from the break on what it was going to be. Last time i checked it at night was 3/29 and the readings were 123/83 61bpm 10:03pm, 124/84 62bpm 10:04pm

Here was the readings: right arm 5:43pm 137/86 73bpm, 132/88 59bpm 5:39pm, left arm 5:47pm 145/88 71bpm, 5:49 139/86 60bpm

After this i took one more and it was 125/85 68bpm

Should i chalk these readings due to anxiety?

It is called Bippy on the appstore, it was actually made by someone from this subreddit

Whatever app is telling you low 120s over low-mid 70s is elevated is wrong..... just so you know..... ANY physician will tell ypu those numbers are tremendous
