A month ago I went to my doc. My blood pressure was 150/100!!!!


I went into day for a check, and it's down to 124/86! YIPEEE!!!

The bottom number could be lower, but hey, it's coming down! I'm happy!!

Excellent!
If you don't already have a home BP machine, the digital ones are easy to read. Ours was about $45.00.

Great news, Susie! A lot of people don't realize that high blood pressure can cause some SERIOUS problems if it's untreated. Regular checks of your blood pressure are important to make sure that, if there is a problem, you can deal with it. I'm so proud of you for working to get it under control! Keep up the great work so all of us here at TCS get to enjoy the pleasure of your company for years and years to come!

That is a great number - nothing wrong with that! So now....you got everyone else's BP up by your underwear thread.

Good for you, Susan. 128/86 isn't bad. Jerry would take you BP - makes total sense. Sooo.... how often do you and Jerry play doctor???
