High Blood pressure: Why we shouldnt worry about the number

[musicrelaxationmeditation]

I had my pressure checked 10 years ago and it was 150/90 at age 43 and the doctor strictly advised me to take medication, but i reluctantly carried on my lifestyle without smoking, limitred alcohol, no sugar, normal exxcercise and here i am after 10 years still healthy and doing great ! to alll the people reading this comment please do not get stressed up with your BP numbers just let it GO ! but try to change your lifestyles and listen to soothing music and laugh out to your hearts content ! GOD bless you ALL !

Nothing raises blood pressure like worrying about blood pressure

I have had bad experiences with B/P machines, so when I went to a knee clinic and I saw the tech wheel in a B/P machine, I panicked. My B/P was 196/102. When I left, I called my primary care doctor, and he told me to come right in. The nurse took my B/P with a cuff and stethoscope, and it was 140/80. This is an example of how fear and anxiety can raise your B/P.

We are all being literally terrorized with ever-decreasing numbers. The same thing happens with diabetes and cholesterol. Everything for the benefit of the pharmaceutical industry. After all, blood pressure 140 or 150/90 is not a death sentence. And if you keep reminding yourself of this, you calm down an the measured blood pressure values ​​will also decrease over time. This is how it went in my case.

I think my blood pressure just dropped simply by watching this - thank you 👍🏻

At home: 120/80. When doctor measures: 170/100. I have developed such a panic of a Doctor taking my blood pressure, it is crazy.

Obviously this Man is an actual “Doctor “ who really cares about more than just making money 🙏

This guy has a good point. It should not always be about the numbers. It's about your overall health.

I started reading my Bible at night and got off my phone. Calms my anxiety. Jesus gives us peace and love. Give him your burdens and rest on him. It’s not easy at first but also try prayer. I know people will criticize my comment but hopefully someone will try it.

Worrying about blood pressure, raises blood pressure. 😄

We're so lucky to have this advice free!
I was overweight for years in my 20s (115kg) and smoked 15 cigarettes a day. My BP was always about 135/90. I have recently lost weight (91kg now) and exercise an hour per day, and have stopped smoking. I love fresh fruit and vegetables, and eat a lot of fish. My BP is down to 120/75. What has really surprised me is how much better I sleep.

100% agree. I’m in my 50’s and I get BP readings that average 145/90. Multiple doctors recommended meds. I tried three different types and I must say it was the absolute worst I’ve ever felt in my life. Almost like a narcotic, out of body feeling. I threw the meds in the trash and never looked back. I’m out climbing, Snowboarding or surfing every day, I eat well and I’m fit. Not worried about my BP numbers.

Oh my God! Is this finally an honest medical practicioner?

I just love you people putting out your own struggles with high blood pressure. Listening to the cardiologist and reading your comments has helped me so very much. Sharing certainly adds a lot to caring. Thank you.❤

I'm 54 and weigh 190 lbs but typically sit at 9 to 10% body fat. I retired early and have the luxury of being able to exercise vigorously every day, including extensive weight lifting and cardio. All my favorite activites are outdoor related: skiing, rock climbing, mountain biking. Despite this, I've had numerous health care workers say I should go on blood pressure medication for sitting at 140/90. I have of course refused, but it's very frustrating that so many doctors are so prescription happy. They need to read more broadly and have more tools in their arsenal other than a prescription pad. Thanks very much for posting this video!

My BP goes up as soon as I enter the Drs office
