About your blood pressure,ever heard of the" white coat syndrome"? It means that some people get .nervous at the doctor's office and it raises their blood pressure. That's why many doctors ,(.mine is one) will.take it again once you have been talking with them a while..Usually the second time it's taken it's lower
