He tells you that he has a history of high blood pressure and that he is on vacation and hasn’t taken his pills for a few days. He states, "I know I should have taken my pills. This has happened to me before. The salty dinner I had last night probably didn’t help. I haven’t been sleeping well either." You obtain a history and a physical examination on Mr. H.
