blood pressure?
I was at the dr the other day for treatment of anxiety disorder, my blood pressure was 112/84 which he and the nurse said was good, my pulse was 88 which was probably up b/c I was so upset. Is my blood pressure okay though? Usually the bottom number isn’t over 80.
I’m a major hypochondriac so I have trouble believing dr’s that there’s nothing wrong ![]()

Systolic is the first number in a blood pressure reading. After the surge period, your heart rests briefly and expands in preparation for another beat. This expansion period is called diastolic, which provides the second number in a blood pressure reading.
Doctors generally agree that systolic readings of 120 to 140 and diastolic readings of 70 to 90 are normal. Slightly higher readings—140 to 159 and 90 to 94—are considered mild high blood pressure (mild hypertension). Readings from 160 to 179 and 94 to 114 signal moderate hypertension. Anything above these limits is considered a serious problem.
