Uh u cycle soo much n doo so much exercise..how to have high blood pressure? U makan alot of salt n ham n preserved meat? Cut down on the ham sandwich.

Based on my readings, I don't have high blood pressure. 120/75 is good at any age and excellent at my age.

I was like you when I was your age. "Perfect" weight, blood pressure ..... base on medical definition. A few years back, I got a mild stroke. It was shocking. No sign or symptom, it just happened. Spontaneous, would be an appropriate word to describe it. Stay in high intensive care for a week - just going through MRI and all kinds of scans. Cost nearly 10 k and senior doc recommend to insert a scope to my brain as he was unable to determine the cause of the stroke Felt real disgusted that all the scans are nothing but real scams. Later learnt from friends that doc would mark up by $200 for each scan. They get to pocket these extras for doing nothing as report of each scan is made by other doc. I concluded that no doc can be better than ourselves. Be prepared for "spontaneous" medical condition. Do our best to avoid them. To sporty people who are no longer young; slow down even if we are feeling fit and fine with perfect bp, pulse rate ...


Like spontaneous riots???

good advice.
most sportsmen died young as they always think they can always do it.
many veteran footballers died on the field while playing the game.
the same with bedminton too!!! so be careful those had been sportsmen!!!

So Leongsam, did you get your advice after so many pages of posts?

Yes very useful information... some old school which views the issue in black and white while others acknowledge many shades of grey.

My Uncle had high blood pressure all his life and refused to take medication. He lived to 89 and died of liver failure instead.

At the end of the day, our fate depends upon the cards we are dealt.

This contradicts the latest guidelines which you posted earlier. :confused:

Fighting with the wife is extremely dangerous even in the absence of any cardiovascular risk.

A friend of mine had a fight with his wife and ended up $2 million poorer.

doctors and pharmaceutical companies are always trying to churn out some breaking news and guidelines.
not all doctors accept the latest guidelines ...many still believe that 150/90 for those above 60 is still not acceptable
and they will treat vigorously to bring down to 130/90 or even 120/80 ....but the findings concluded that these are not really
necessary as they do not cut down the cardio-vascular complications and morbidities. this is something many doctors will not dare to pursue and follow through to avoid medico-legal actions.

don't forget about white coat hypertension.
remember there is something called masked hypertension.
and always remember hypertension is a silent killer......and there are also other co-morbidities that will contribute
to cardio-vascular events....so do be careful when you have occasional readings like 150/90...150/100......it is a red flag.

take care boss...

I agree. HBP is nothing if it does not interfere with your daily life. Medication nowadays are like poison and HBP medication cannot stop once started.

At certain times, due to some unknown reason, BP can become high. You feel unwell and have headaches that will not go away. Take the medication and when the headache goes away, you can stop it.

Stay away from stressful situations and have adequate rest. This is the remedy for HBP, not medication.
