does BP always rise when anxious?

Hi,
can you be anxious without elevated blood pressure?

Looks like sometime I am.

Hi,

Yeah it doesn’t always rise. Soemtimes when I’m anxious it can be around 170 over 100 and then another day when I’m experiencing the same amount of worry it will be low, say around 120 over 70.

I’m not sure why this.
