[Mikey]

Had 2 heart attacks 1 reg -1 massive --- / bypasses, stents, defibrillator, pacemaker, oxygen and enough meds to OD Charlie Sheen... runs in the family.

That said, my advice get multiple professional opinions.

If my BP was that high my Doc would put me in the hospital immediately.

crikey mikey ,sound like you've been in the wars mate

thanks for the reply and encouragement

got my copy of the medical report today

im confused by the section here ,
my bp was taken on a machine ,the health care professional conducting the examination had been quite dismissive of me and my attempts to explain health problems my symptoms and how they impact on my daily life ,but she seemed rattled by how high my bp was
said she would take my heart rate ,but did no more tests and ended the exam .no other implements and techniques were used so how would she determine the volume and rhythm of my pulse shown in the report



she has recorded my pulse rate at 103 bpm ,is this the same as my heart rate ,how is it measured and how bad is it and what should it be ,and is it consistent and comparable with my recorded bp
cheers

See another doctor! Your pulse rate is high, it really should be below 100 and between 70-90. Your BP is still very high. Both numbers are scary high.

Also curious if they did any blood work and if any high levels of protein (especially a high level of creatine which is a protein) showed up?
