Medical blood pressure

I know my medical is getting closer I find I'm worrying about it a lot and especially what is acceptable for the blood pressure does anyone know if there is a maximum it can be

There are a few tricks you can do which lowers it slightly like holding your arm above heart height but to save time go to your GP now and get your blood pressure tested, then if its high simply agree with your doctor a plan of action, get it written down on a surgery headed notepad and take it with you to the medical. Otherwise after the medical you will have to do it afterwards anyway. Mine was high on the day due to no sleep and worry and thats what I had to do, was perfect at my doctors though.

The rest of the medical is literally nothing, all they need is the plan of action if your BP high, dont stress.

I have been pretty stressed I went to the gp and my bp was 140/90 which I've read online is pretty high yet my doctor seemed to think it was ok

Go again, get a plan of action to reduce blood pressure (eat right yadda yadda) and you are covered regardless.

Great thankyou so even if it's not meds as long as it's a plan from the doctor to reduce it
