Yeah absolutely BP can be an addictive thing. So I do it once a week and that’s it and if it’s a bit higher I don’t care. My blood pressure wasn’t my issue anyway but the doctors create that concern and leave it hanging there . I don’t take blood pressure tablets anymore but defo thinners

Yep I took my bp all the time when first had stroke, it was getting lower and lower cos of all the meds they gave me so I was worried about stopping breathing..go figure…it’s kinda evened out now a bit but I only check it intermittently cos I thought well …(ala Tony Soprano) Whaddya goin do with it? Always fluctuating etc…guess if it blew up big time would need to do summat but not gonna stress the noo like.

I have panics about my heart stopping and then have to rationalise that if my heart has stopped, I’d be dead and can’t rationalise it.
