'Kay,
122/74, Heart rate 58. (I have always had a relatively low heart rate, a very healthy, strong heart, despite my inherited tendency towards high blood pressure, showing up only in the past few years. This fact alone lead several doctors to ignore my impending problems with hypertension)
(anyone else care to share?)
This is still considered "Pre-Hypertension" in the medical books. Not to be ignored. Not fucking bad at all for a man my age (fifty five and STILL COUNTING-GODDAMNIT), but damn stressful to think that I have to take four different medications to attain this level.
Basically ... :lol:
... stepping in here, again, I just took all my seventeen pills, mostly vitamins, nutrients, anti-oxidants and "megas" (such as two milligrams of B12, two grams of vitamin C per day, for instance, minerals, etc.), mind you.
Only ones that are vital are the four BP meds, or five, if I was to count the (doctor suggested - despite my old drinking habits and the possibility of future sever liver damage - :grin:) daily aspirin regimen.
