At first appointment with a doctor, the nurse said my BP was 201?

Be totally aware, all medical professionals are out to protect their certifications long before they are concerned about you. They will cover all mistakes at your expense. This one reading may not be a problem but if you are anything like me, it will eat at you. The best thing you can do is be sure that your point is in the records and keep checking to be sure that it remains there. You are secondary. I have a friend who mentioned that she was not feeling emotionally well and she was branded as depressed by the nurse. All doctors see that and treat her accordingly. If she complains about something, they say something like I see that you are depressed She has been branded. She just as well should have a scarlet D burned onto her forehead. If you read an article about suicide and ask about it, you will be branded as contemplating suicide.
