Blood pressure went up recently. Can this happen during a cold or flu? Can blood pressure go up during a period of grief?

Your blood pressure will certainly rise during any time of sickness. Your body is working hard to fight off an infection! As far as a period of grief, the emotional toll and stress can definitely cause an increase in blood pressure.
Yes to both.
