       Blood pressure

       I did some home readings today, three slightly different
       results, but the best was 132/85.  I know there are a lot of
       factors, and yesterday we had a few friends over so some alcohol
       was drunk.  Does this seem high.  Just to add, I'm 16 stone  ;D

       It's marginally high but within 'norma'l range in theory, but
       both readings are on the higher side

       I meant to take a reading before I started this cycle.  If I
       started last Thursday is that a bit soon to raise this?

       I would expect it to have some impact on reading TBH

       Keep an eye on it mate if your just going back on cycle, just in
       case it goes high.
       I dissected a Carotid artery in my neck due to high blood
       pressure and was very lucky to avoid a stroke.
       That was at far higher numbers than yours I must add.  TBH your
       are only marginal above normal range.  (120/80) being the
       general norn.
       Always wise to keep an eye on BP, regardless.

       My blood pressure is absolutely terrible. More so since I
       started posting on forums.

       When I was in my early 30s it was higher.  Back then I did zero
       cardio, different now.  I'll monitor as much as I can.

       Sounds like you were very lucky then. I will see the nurse again
       and get this tested again, at least they can advise as they can
       see my history.

       Well I took a reading this morning, and I certainly do
       fluctuate.  It was 126/78.

       Mornings are likely to be lower
