Is it okay if blood pressure when sitting is higher than lying down?
I usually measure my blood pressure at home using an electronic device, and I’ve noticed a difference between my readings when sitting and lying down. I am quite confused about whether the result of 140/90 (when I stand) or 122/79 (when I lie down) is accurate. Is it normal for my blood pressure to be much higher when I am sitting compared to when I am lying down?
