[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1084774, member: 41816"] I had always had low to normal BP, until this year. Then it shot up - stress related, as far as I can see. However, in my inevitable googling on the subject, I found out some fascinating snippets of info. Firstly, having PCOS (as I do) is a huge risk factor - and the high BP usually hits at around this age (late 40s/early 50s) Also (for everyone) high BP is a symptom, not a disease in itself. Which kind of makes you think that docs should be looking for the CAUSE not just handing out pills for a SYMPTOM, dontcha think? I found this article very useful: [URL]http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2014/06/09/hypertension-prevention-treatment.aspx[/URL] [/QUOTE]
