Hypertension and White Coat Syndrome
One of my client was speaking about the difference in her spouse’s blood pressure reading. When it is taken in home it is somewhere between normal and slightly high. But when it is taken at doctor’s clinic it reads very high.
By seeing the doctor her husband’s blood pressure was raising. My client wondered this way. But her husband thought he was not very much nervous by seeing the doctor. But he did admit that he could been subconsciously affected.
Her husband may be suffering from “White Coat Syndrome,” or “White Coat Hypertension.”
A person’s blood pressure may be raised in either a doctor’s office or even an office setting. However it reads normal at home. It may affect 10 to 20 percent of the adult population.
Sometimes, though, medical personnel take incorrect readings. This is generally from using a blood pressure cuff that is to small and results in a high blood pressure read.
The risk may be smaller than chronic high blood pressure, but it is larger than normal. Now the question that needed an answer is Is this syndrome pose a health risk? And the answer is yes.
What is important is to know when one’s blood pressure is increasing and for how long each time this happens. If the only time one’s blood pressure goes up is the occasional doctor’s office visit and for only a few minutes, this probably isn’t an issue. If, however, one is experiencing this phenomena several times per day, it could lead to chronic high blood pressure.
Even when people are not suffering from white coat syndrome some people think they are suffering from it.
In fact most of us would prefer to suffer from an annoying problem rather than dangerous health problem like chronic hypertension.
To determine what condition you are in fact suffering from, I strongly recommend that you see your doctor. Regardless of the outcome, I believe my all natural High Blood Pressure program will help you. The success of this program has been amazing – it really works!
