Coincidence? Wearing mask brings on Afib & high blood pressure?

I just want to comment about your high b/p at Dr,s.. my b/p hits the roof at the thought of Dr taking it. Its hilarious really. It's perfect all along. As soon as I enter Dr,s office I can feel it rising. Its called white coat syndrome . A few hours after I leave its perfect again. I wonder is that the case with you and nothing to do with the mask?

I experience the same thing. From as far back as I can remember. At home I’m consistently in the 110 / 65 or lower range (took a long time to get to that but I’m now on a good mix of meds) At pretty much every doctor visit it hits 140 / 90 or higher. And I know my home device is correct because I have brought it with me on my doctor visits and it gets the same readings there as their office device does.
