High blood pressure
Welcome back viewer.
I went to the Doc's today as I felt my heart was pounding away a litle too much all the time.
Ive had a stress filled coupla months, so I thought Id better see about it.
I had a pressure test and the Doc said its a little high but nothing to worry about.
She then prescribed some pills to take.
When I got them home and read the leaflet that came with them I decided no way HoseB.
Here are the side effects of taking the drugs.......:eek:
I know, give me a lecture.
Almost forgot, The packet says take in the morning, and may affect, ability to drive, coordination, mental alertness. :eek:
All the things I need to function as a brickie.

Hi Al,
Personally, I prefer a nice glass of red (or of a decent single malt) to calm myself down.
Where I work, stress isn't an option, it's a condition of employment :eek:
Try the meds anyway, mate - you might be in the 90% unaffected...

Al, ditch the pills... if it's not serious, you can fix it with your head.

Hey Al
FFS mate
The best cure for high blood pressure and stress is an aeroplane ride.
Preferably for a long visit, and to somewhere in Asia.
Hanoi is a good choice.
Once you get there, the only stress you'l get, is having to go back home.

Al,, you big girly handbag, DON'T listen to some half wit who tells you can fix high blood pressure in your head, he obviously has some vital components missing in his! If you are wary of taking whatever medication the Doctor has prescribed then go and talk to your Pharmacist as they knoiw even more about the actual drugs usually than the Doctor. Drugs and their effects and interactions are what the Pharmacist is all about. To throw them in the bin because of the silly list which has every possible symptom that has been reported as MAY E being associated with that particular drug is irresponsible and possibly dangerous to your health.
Al, talk to the Chemist and then take your meddy like a big boy!
