8 days smoke free and blood pressure is still high, should i wait a couple more days and see if it goes down? Your blood pressure may be up because quitting smoking can be a very stressful experience. Stress can raise your BP. However, I would make a visit to the doctor. Maybe he can give you something to help with the stress. Also might be good to just get it checked in case there is something else wrong. Congrats on be 8 days smoke free! That is really tough! Lay off the caffeine and watch the sodium intake as well. Take 10 deep breaths before you have your BP taken. So yeah, give it a few more days. you blood pressure may be high for another reason, ask your doc Your blood pressure should go down after the first two days. 8 days and it should have been way down by now. I would go see a doc now, they can get you on some meds for your BP just to be safe. 8 days is nothing. How long did you smoke for? 20 years? It takes some time and excercise to see the benefits. I would wait at least 2 more weeks, you could also try cutting down on your salt. Just because you quit smoking does not mean your high blood pressure will be gone. High blood pressure is caused by many different things and smoking is just one of the things that can cause your blood pressure to be elevated at times. Unless your doctor told you for sure that smoking and smoking alone is what was causing your high BP you need get it treated. |
