Filing Flight Plan
If I have a blood pressure reading over the maximum limit (due to "white coat syndrome" -- no diagnosed hypertension), what should I expect after that?
My doctor has spoken with me about starting medication, but we haven't started on anything yet. If I were to be over the limit at the time of the reading, could I go back to my doctor and start on BP meds? If I were to do that, would I still have to go through the whole deferral process? Or, could I just come back to the AME a couple / few weeks later once my BP has gone down due to the meds?
Thanks again, you guys are all great.
