Please tell me your doctor also prescribed something like nifedipine to take in the event of a hypertensive crisis. If not, you might want to find a more experienced pdoc.
Good Luck,
Jonp.s. You might also want to invest in a blood pressure monitor just to give yourself peace of mind from time to time. You'll know if you're having a hypertensive crisis, but it is nice to see the numbers that say everything is just fine :)
