So apparently I have white coat blood pressure, meaning it gets higher when a doctor/nurse takes it. We took my blood pressure today and it was 107/67 when at the doctor's office it was 140/72 which is approaching high. However I'm going to monitor it every day for a week to get an average.
So that's it. My husband has a theory that I am tired because I am ADHD (or a least he has diagnosed me as such based on my personality and how I can hyperfocus on one thing and it will cause a lack of sleep). He says the adipex might be affecting me similar to how ritalin affects an ADD person in that it will calm me down even though it is a stimulant.
I'm going to speak with the doctor about it. It could also be that I'm not getting enough sleep at night time and no amount of stimulants can completely take away that tired feeling.
