I check mine all the time. Ive been diagnosed with hyper-tension and I am on meds to control it. But everytime im in the pharmacy I pop into that "check your BP" machine.
My normal is 140/85

I never thought about blood pressure till I had a check up at the docs, it was quite high, he gave me diuretics and it did go down but mainly cos I was then aware of what brings it up [ smoking. drinking, high cholesterol ] I stopped taking diuretics as they caused dehydration ,and just try and keep a check on it. I have one of those little machines so can do it myself. Main thing is don't worry about it as that will stress you and raise your BP !

My husband and my 16 yr old son have high blood pressure. They take medicine to regulate it. We have a home blood pressure cuff to check their blood pressure with.

Strange but my blood pressure is normal, a miracle as my diet has a lot of cholesterol and sugar in it , and i used to smoke a lot, for 45 i feel good.
