But if those daily factors are happening all the time at some point isn’t that blood pressure measurement the one that matters? If I can get to normal bp by extreme efforts but spend most of my time in mild hypertension I might need to treat it somehow.
Blood pressure varies throughout the day with activity and it's all normal. My understanding is it's only considered hypertension if your pressure is high even at rest. If you're chronically stressed out all the time, though, then yeah maybe you're at risk of a stroke?
