The doctor told me I will be Dead in a year...

[mountain muscle]

I finally broke down today and went to the doctor to get some meds for this sinus infection.

Going through all of the usual tests she takes my blood pressure.

All she says is "wow". Tries the other arm, this time silence, then "excuse me" with a solemn look on her face.

Comes back with another doctor who takes me for chest xrays, straps me up to an ekg and wants me to fill a cup.

Apparently, my BP meds aren't doing their job. 190/154

So I got new meds, have to quit drinking, change my diet to try and get it under control or she said I would be dead within a year.

I love doctors. To top it off my back is all tweaked out again and my arms are getting tingles and going numb. Good times.

Wow! Take care of yourself man. Is your diet in check? All you can do is take those meds, stay fit, and eat right. Does this problem run in your family?

My dad has high bp too and it runs in my mom's family.

Forgot to mention they found protein in the ua so it is starting to affect my kidneys too.

It's been a good day.
