Thread Name: High blood-pressure
Subject: RE: High blood-pressure
My Dr has me on a combination of three different pills, the thhird different combination since we started trying to control my BP. It seems she finnaly came up with a winner. My bp numbers had been running high (160/950) and now I am averaging numbers between 137-107 systolic and 65-82 diastolic. Excercise (ride a bike three times a week anywhere between 5 to 12 miles each outing) and diet are also in place. I have lost 25 pounds since I started with her and hope to drop below 195 by the end of January. I definetly would not have been able to do all this without the Dr's help and advice. Do see one ASAP....It can mean a world of difference!
