I have a at home monitor I gotbecause I was worried about my Blood pressure, I was taking a drug for depression Cymbalta and started having higher then normal Blood pressure readings. My normal has always been 120/80 or close to. Since then I stopped taking Cymbalta for about 3 or 4 months now. I use the monitor but it still seems high. When is the best times to check it, and how often to get a accurate blood pressure reading? I was running around with my husband outside came in and it was 151/87 that is really high right? But my moms says you can not check it after exercising like that. So maybe thats what it is. or after eating right? I keep having these headaches in the back of my head! If I am running around outside, I can not figure out if its my blood pressure or my sinuses as I have constant problems with my sinuses. It is ont he sides like on the temples and in the back of my head, sometimes on the top??? Any Ideas?
