What Is The Cause For My Anxious State Of Mind When I Am At The Doctor's For BP Check Up?

I'm a 34 year old man. I do regular cardiovascular exercise like skipping & cycling. I've a resting heart rate of 60 beats/minute. I also observe that my heart rate quickly becomes normal after strenuous exercise. But when ever I get my BP checked, it comes high (160/90). At that time my heart rate is also observed high (80-90). I feel I'm in an anxious state of mind when I'm at the doctor's place as my BP is being checked. Can you elaborate on this?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
If you do not have any medical issue and you are doing fine physically fit then why to go for taking the figures of hear rate BP pulse rate, these are highly fluctuated functions and it wont help you any more in any way, on the contrary this could cause panic, so stop doing this and enjoy the exercise, hope this information helps you, take care and have nice day.
