HBP

Up at past 6 AM today and at the time when I was panfrying the hashbrown and sunshine egg (just one egg and less salt) for my husband's breakfast suddenly the door was open at the living room. It was my husband at the door holding a jug of milk and with a small white plaster on his arm. He told me that he went to the clinic to have his blood check for cholesterol level. Then he showed the spot where the nurse prick the needle. The nurse had problem finding the veins, he said. He has high blood, I have high blood. I think getting old is having high blood pressure that is not normal. It comes with the age. My husband has "maintenance medication for high blood."

My high blood pressure goes up and down. It's higher when it's hot. It actually depends on the hot weather at summer time or depends what could trigger the pressure.

This is the record of my BP last May 2018.
SYS. 164     DIA. 78      PULSE  79

It was so hot that day. I felt so dizzy, first thought there was an earthquake.  I'm glad the weather temperature is at reasonable rate these past few days and has lowered my BP. I looked at myself in the mirror and told myself  "I am still young!" how could that my BP is so high. Anyway... too many with HB in this part of the province so it must be something with the food that we are eating. It's the same kind of food that we are having for the past 20 years:  Lean beef, pork, chicken, fish, shrimps and vegetables. Unless of course if the meat is from moose and deer (venison). But I don't eat moose or venison. I don't eat chicken. I don't eat anything with wings.

Maybe I should drink red wine as suggested by those people who benefited from drinking red wine to lower cholesterol level. WTH! I don't have any vice. I don't drink and I don't smoke. No vice except BLOGGING! Blogging and photography. Don't tell me blogging can cause high blood pressure?
