Subject: BS: Strokes: Fluctuating blood pressure From: VirginiaTam Date: 12 Mar 10 - 02:43 AM The Lancet has just published a finding that fluctuating blood pressure is more dangerous re causing strokes than consistently high blood pressure. Swings in blood pressure 'could better predict stroke than high average readings Now I can go to my GP and say, that my fluctuations need seeing too. Especially since all 4 of my grandparents suffered from strokes. Wonder if I will have to wait until the NHS takes this information on board and approves treatment? |
