I've just measured my blood pressure and it's 113/70.
This morning, before I took medication it was 134/94

What is your current blood pressure?

Don't really know but I feel pressurized! :itold::thumbsup:

Can I just go to the Doctor's surgery and ask for a blood pressure test or do I have to book on? (I'm in the UK)

you have to make an appointment!

my blood pressure is sky high!!

120/70 just had it checked today

140/80 with a resting HR of 59.

Why a 140 systolic reading? I don't know.. and neither does my doctor.

98/69....I have chronic low blood pressure so I take my blood pressure frequently on my own. And I just did.

Shorty, I'm jealous, that's so perfect! Is it always like that for you?

last time i went to dr it was like 93/60 or something like that.

So do I.

Get a headache after a bath? My sodium intake is insane, yet my pressure remains dangeroulsy low.

Yours is way low.

Is this English?

What're the units of blood pressure and what do they mean? Should I just look at wikipedia since none of you will know anyway?


Is this English?

Apparently the Queen's.

Last time I went to the doc ( I had my first ever migraine and the pre event aura freaked the shit out of me, thought I had a brain tumour or was about to stroke) anyway he to my B.P.
I asked how it was, he says " 105" I asked "over what?"
He says he didn't bother with that shit, everything was fine".
(I like my doc, he's a surfer, very laid back, very frank and honest).

I mentioned that the red wine seemed to be working.
He just smiled knowingly.

My resting HR is 54. Sorry crew but fucking good is that?
I'm 45 and do not train or workout.
Bodysurfing, wine and freediving are the secret.And a predominantly Asian diet.

If you are not on medication, that's about perfect.

If you are on medication, and having no side effects,
your doctor is doing a good job.

Keep with the first three, but is it really fair to eat Asians?

Kremmen, I take it you do know how the big cat took down the whole circus...went straight for the juggler!!

Keep with the first three, but is it really fair to eat Asians?

Only the really small minorities, Bangladeshis, Nepalese that sort of thing.

The Chinese and Indians are too well organised and gangland wars in tantawangalo are just ugly.

120/80. Just had it measured today.

150/80 went to see my dr today! and have been told to cut out on salt, and make sure i stick to my diet!!

Current Blood Pressure 129/91

Not bad because I've had a stressful morning.
Had to buy a new car battery and it cost £50.
About double what it was the last time I bought one.

Cost of car batteries has increased because of cost of lead.
Cost of lead has increased due to Chinese.

Eat as many as you like Spud.
(Don't get me started on Tantawangalo again)

Cost of lead has increased due to Chinese.

Actually it has increased because of the price of fuel.

We can't keep blaming the Arabs.

"Oh, river...full.. of ..fish!"

American contingent, please ignore last quote.

So do I.

I do actually. What's yours normally like? Sometimes it even goes down to the 70/50 range...that's when I tend to black out and that's usually very early in the morning when I first stand up out of bed. I eat so much salt and it doesn't seem to help more than for the hour after I have it.
