  • How did my blood pressure get so low?

    3 years ago, my blood pressure had to be taken 8 times at Military Entrance Processing because it was off the charts (above 150/90 I think... but I got it down to 140/something after several measurements).

    3 years later and after eating mountains of red meat and dairy... 110/80.



    How'd that happen? I thought red meat is bad.

        You were nervous the first time. White coat syndrome.

        E: And that's not low. It's pretty damn normal. Get back to me when you near 90.

            Check under your bed for vampires, and wear some garlic just in case.

                You're a vegetarian, though.

                    3 months on a veggie diet can hide the damage of a 4 decade long diet of sugar and fat and corn syrup and...and...and people ban pot? I might keel over next week, but I'm seriously amazed at my bp. I'll be finding out in a few months if the fruits and veggies reversed my pre-diabetes numbers. The symptoms sure aint as noticeable...

                      A low BP can also be a symptom of heart disease

                        Yes, my 110/80 was really setting off alarms for the doctor that I may have a heart condition
