[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1955136, member: 94045"] Do you know what your BP was when put on the tablets, and what is it now? How long have you been on the tablets? I can't answer your question about the Q-Risk calculation, but it is a one size fits all calculation, and has a lot of ridiculous anomalies. The same question could be asked about diabetes. You tick yes if you are diabetic. T1 and T2 are the only choices and there is no option for entering the HbA1c or any other option. Even though my GP has removed me from the register she still includes T2 in the calculation, which more or less doubles the risk factor. If I were you I wouldn't be worried in the least about the risk score. [/QUOTE]
