wow, thats to bad. i would tell your dr. that u would feel better going to a specialist who deals in heart diseases.this is not something to take lightly, it's our life, and body. your dr. is someone who u hire, u r the boss. if it helps my b/p is always high. i live alone. i am 52. i have had my b/p go as high as 210/120. my top # is always high. sometimes i don't think these drs. know what they r doing. good luck. lynnyView Thread
