You're a FOOL if you ignore doctor's advise to take BP meds !
You're a worst fool if you don't try to lower your blood pressure yourself first. Most doctors these days are expected to prescribe as many drugs as possible by their employer.
Lowering hypertension is inclusive of eating healthy, exersize, loosing weight,stop using tobacco, relieve stressful situations, and if required meds. People in pain like from arthritis or are genetically disposed have increased hypertension and all the life style changes won't help with that. The fools are ones that don't look at everything and self medicate and think they know everything. There are doctors that are not in that"MOST" category. Thank God a team of them saved my life or kept me from being paralyzed last Friday night
