I once had a similar high outlier blood pressure reading after a somewhat busy day followed by running through the city to my blood donation appointment. Who knew that BP is affected by external factors and doesn't stay constant throughout the day‽‽

Having a full bladder will raise your blood pressure.

It raises my heartrate as well. I know my bladder is full many times due to the heartrate rather than feeling my bladder. I'm not sure if others notice this. I assumed without looking at the anatomy that the arteries to the lower extremities are under pressure from the bladder.

I had a similar trip to the blood bank once: I rode my motorcycle from Palm Springs to San Diego, straight to the blood bank, on a cold January morning. As usual, they took my temperature. It was 95-something. They said, "Are you feeling alright?" I said, "Sure, I should have worn better clothing for the ride down here, but I'm fine." They conferred, then took my cold blood :-)

The first time I’ve seen an interrobang used in the wild!
