Yesterday i went to work and I had not slept again, but it was worse because I actually had to attend an all day lecture in the city. So I had not slept,felt jittery,shaky,extreme fatigue,cold,poor concentration,whole body hurt from lack of sleep. I was fighting to stay awake. I swung around corner at a tea break to the chemist,and my BP was 167/98. Even though on my meds. When the cuff was inflating, ususally it inflates up to 165, and then starts to deflate. Yesterday it inflated past 250 and started deflating?? I am wondering why it did that. I also want to know from others who have BP challenges, does insomnia and fatigue make your BP rise up, even though I am on meds and it's fairly well controlled.

Thank you very much as always
