You do not take blood pressure when: person (s) is overly excited, when they are under stress, when they first enter a hospital or doctors office, when they fall and are embarrassed, these are just a few but all these situation and similar one can give a higher than normal blood pressure which can be very misleading. We have to remember blood pressure is the result of another condition.. So know you symptoms and conditions before taking a bp.
