Any remedy pls?

Good morning n'landers particular doctors in the house.

I don't even know the right section to post this cause it looks more of Witchcraft to me

I will just head straight to the point.

I have this passion for joining the military, but the issue I am having is High Blood Pressure which usually occurred whenever it is about to be checked during the medical screening. And this year made it the third time it's happening to me.

If I check it elsewhere, places like normal clinic or chemist, it will be normal 120/70mmHg but when it comes to the real business, I mean at the screening center, my heart will be beating faster and it will causes the blood pressure to be elevated. Something like 150/90mmHg and above.

The last one that happened really pissed me off! I even took a drug named nifedipine - 20mg and backed it up with garlic but immediately it's my turn to be checked, my heart started beating faster and uncontrollable, I was asked to go and relax and come back but yet, this problem still persist.

But immediately I left the medical screening venue, I was calmed.

2 days after this, those of us with BP issues were given grace to a recheck, but immediately it was about to get to my turn, I got tensed again.

And it led to my eviction

A day after, I went to a nearby chemist to check, to my surprise, it was just 110/70mmHg.

Pls how can I rectify this? Any remedy?

I know some will say; joining the military is not my way, but pls just help me. I need to know what the problem is.

Thanks.
