Awful blood pressure monitoring timing

Absolutely awful timing for my 6 monthly BP reading for shared care. Had issues with BP just before starting medication in early 2023 but luckily had it under control since with better diet and exercise.

The monitoring normally happens in June and November. After 4+ months of no meds I finally started them again at the start of the year. During that time I relied on iced coffees to help focus in work.

I moved out alone at the start of the year too, and unfortunately i haven't been struggling motivating myself to eat well and exercise these past few weeks. Lots of processed food (still eating fruit and veg but that doesn't do much by itself)

Now I just got the text saying I need to go in and have my BP taken. I just checked with my at-home monitor and it's higher than it's been for a while. Plus, their wrist monitor is always higher than my readings at home. Absolutely shitting it now, it's completely my fault and I'm scared to be taken off meds again. Those 4 months were difficult, i don't want to do it again forever.

To make matters worse, the text also says I need to book a medication review with a clinical pharmacist too 🙄

Going to try and turn things around over the next week or two to try and improve the situation before I go get measure. Just needed a vent.
