I too have high blood pressure treated with tablets which control it extremely well.
(105/60 average)I was interested to read the article, however I am not sure if this is the Panacea we are led to believe ? My understanding is that high blood pressure can have many causes and therefore I am sceptical that this Op is going to 'cure' everything. I would definitely need to know more.
For many people there is no specific cause for their high blood pressure. It seems to be just one of those things. There are a small number of people who do have an underlying condition causing their high blood pressure. Unfortunately, only a few of these conditions can be treated, but this does mean in a very few people blood pressure can be returned to normal. You are more likely to have an underlying cause if you have very severe blood pressure or blood pressure that is resistant to treatment or if you have underlying kidney disease.
For most people, however, there is no cure as such, but both lifestyle changes and tablets are very effective in lowering blood pressure. If you do manage to lower your blood pressure, then your risk of developing a stroke or heart attack is considerably reduced.
