And it's not me ...

I remember a time when dating a 30-year-old man felt like I was volunteering at a nursing home. When and how did we all get so old? And 36 (Matt's age) is not old, but it sure feels like it when you have to accompany him to Walgreens to pick out a blood pressure monitor. Anyway, if it weren't for my many trips to the pharmacy, Matt wouldn't have tested his BP on the machines and never realized he has high blood pressure. That prompted a much needed visit to the doctor (and blood tests - yeah! not just me!). Now he has to check it 2x a day and go back to the doctor in 1 month.
Okay, he just checked it and it was 125/83 and his pulse was 49. That sounds fine to me! Bring back that machine, we want our $70 back!

That's just barely considered high. How bad was it at the doctor?
He did it 2x at the Doc and it was 142/86 and 150/90.
Yikes! I would just blame that on the anxiety caused by the doctor's office.
Isn't the posting of his blood pressure a violation of his HIPPA rights to privacy!!!!!!
