Blood pressure
 

Hello I am over 400 pounds scale only goes to 400 and I get error on it. Last week I started noticing my blood pressure go through the room when I walk up my stairs, it comes right down to normal. I was on bp meds 2 years ago and list 50 pounds stopped taking the pills now 2 years later 100 pounds heavier high bp is back but only on stairs as I have noticed so far. I was wondering if any members my weight bp goes through the roof when going up stairs my pulse only gets in 90s bp goes 180s/100s then I sit for 2 minutes back to 130s/80s. Thanks

Hi canadacatman!
Sounds like it is time to bite the bullet and go see your doctor.
Afterwards stop on back here and let us know how it is going.
Good luck.

BP should be taken while resting! Not immediately after moving!

I used to have high BP at 281lbs and was on medication.

Now I am 175lbs, I no longer take meds but still keep an eye on my BP. At rest I still get high figures but not enough to go on meds. Similar to your sitting BP. If at rest you go over 140/90, time to see the doc.
