eh, I always read "almost dead" at the doctor too. It's been a while since I've been but I remember numbers like 60 and 80, don't most people read over 100 on the high number?? When I was younger if I sat still reading a book and then got up quickly I'd almost black out - and to think I actually ate better back then too. Thankfully that doesn't seem to happen now that I'm older. Maybe DrPepper, cigarettes and fast food are really good for me?
I wonder if I would just up and keel over dead from too-low-blood pressure if I quit smoking???? You know, since they say on tv it raises your blood pressure so much
I wonder that too! I am also on the "almost dead" list
Even in labor with my first....it read 86/49 . After surgery a couple of years before that, they wouldnt let me have any pain meds until my "BP got back up to acceptable levels" (for them) My DH had to storm off and find the charge nurse to tell her "that BP is HIGH for her! Give her the meds!"
