Default Re: for those with high blood pressure.

Holy crap, that's bad. I think they call it hypertension.

You should be on meds for that especially at your age.

Do you know why the pressure is so high?

I mean I'm like 45yo and overweight and still pull a nice 130/85 when a little anxious according to the nurse whilst getting the snip!

Mate, they say it should be around 100 + your age as a rule of thumb. There's something not right and you need to get it fixed, even diet changes will lower it a little but going over 160 is real bad.
