Millenial male – I Donate platelets at the Red Cross every 2 weeks, been doing it for years, so i roughly know my average BP. Over the last couple months more often than not ive had the same worker checking my vitals, hooking me up to the machine, and/or unhooking me when I'm done: shes incredibly nice, my age, pretty, and ive gotten to know her more than any other worker there by far

Well, I just checked my app and noticed my BP has risen each of the last 3 appointments (she checked my vitals each time). In hindsight during the last check-in she asked if I was nervous, I said no and didn't think anything of it – but looking at it now my BP was very high. Now I have to wonder if I'm catching feelings or i need to actually start taking my BP seriously lol

Edit – looking at when I went to the doctors about a month ago: my BP was 116/78. So.. thats interesting
