I had a can of soup yesterday and it had a lot of sodium in it. I felt sick yesterday, and today I feel better but my blood pressure is still slightly elevated (long story short, I had post partum eclampsia with 4 seizures after the birth of my daughter, which then turned into chronic hypertension, with stroke level blood pressure readings for about 4 months. so I track my blood pressure religiously, although I haven’t had a huge spike in over a year, I am still nervous)

I’m really nervous, like I literally had one can of soup and now I have high blood pressure. I know people were kind of laughing at me a little bit on my post yesterday telling me to plan my funeral, but after having seizures due to high blood pressure I am a little crazy I guess lol

Has anyone experienced this before? Elevated blood pressure an entire day after eating something salty? My doctor told me to just rest and not take my blood pressure again for the rest of the day, but I am so nervous.

(Blood pressure is 130/90, it’s normally 117-120/85

Please note- everyone saying to call my doctor. I DID call my doctor, and he said to rest and not take my blood pressure for the rest of the day. If you scroll up a little bit, i mentioned that I called my doctor. They didn’t give me medicine or anything.
