You mean you have the habit of taking your BP before your exercise?

What did the doctor told you precisely?

How old are you?

Long term wise, you can eat healthy and exercise regularly...

I REPEAT again... What did the doctor tell you PRECISELY? What's your highest BP reading?

Hi,

in order to bring down your BP, the doctor used medication...

Whether is it for lifetime... it would have to depend on your health conditions like how does the body reacts to the medicine prescribed to you and whether has the BP gone down etc...

Apart from using the medication help, you can also make the necessary changes to your current lifestyles and this has to be discuss with your doctor...

I would advice you to abstract yourself from any vigorous exercises at the time being as they might be harmful to your body as you don't know whether can your body take it or not...

Take Care... Wink

Better listen to your doctor's advice and consult your doctor properly because jumping to conclusions of your own.... Things probably ain't that bad now... Well... At least not as bad as you could possibly be making it if you're still gonna be going ahead with your weird ideas...

has anybody tried the atenolol ? any side effect, is it ok? is it for long term medicaiton?

Theatre Of Dreams SG

listen to the doctor. he's more professional than anyone of us here. i understand that you want more opinions, but sourcing from forum is not going to help.

have faith in the experts, and be optimistic. we're in the 21st century.

i guess it is bad to argue with somebody or being depressed or angry. i tried so bad not to get angry but too bad just got angry and frust and now i am feeling so so very sick and feel like a heavy load on my chest. i feel i am so sickly tired person here. i feel not healthy, so sad when i see ppl fit in the gym i feel i am the sick ones. and just a while i can’t even say out my views to sombody that makes me angry cos afraid i will get angry and fight it.so i got to swallow the hurt.how i wish i am healthier with no bp problem and i can say out whatever and not worry if my chst pain or will my bp run up again. that a agony.how to relax find happines, when ppl around u just irriates u so much

health is more important then anything else..

if you have health...you can do anything...

think about it...

alba SG

so u mean don’t argue with ppl or control temper and just agree with ppl even if ppl treat u like dirt. i feel being treated like a dirt, and no pride. should i just ignore it, ok now i am thinking how to be happy even i am in so much agony pain now. watch tv, or listen music.

In anger control management, it's ok to 'throw your temper' or find avenues to release them... So long as you've got them under your control using a relatively 'safe' or harmless method... It's just plain deceiving yourself if you only wanna chunk the issues aside or bottle up EVERYTHING... IN FACT, that won't really be quite that possible...

Alot of things are really about your own mentality and how you look at things... Like I've said.. The BP thing probably won't be such a big issue for now.. At least not as big as if you make it to be... If you're having hypertension, worrying too much over it certainly won't help in most ways... You should be more bother with keeping yourself fit and leading a more healthy lifestyle to prevent other complications to kick in... And at the same time, exercises and controlled diet should do your BP much good too...

Theatre Of Dreams SG

you're angered by them, but you're refraining from expressing it, for fear of raising your bp.

good, you sparing thoughts for your physical health. but this shouldn't be the way. you're doing no good to your psychological health, by mounting on the pressure.

however i'm not saying that you should just let it out altogether either.

the crux lies in your emotion management the instant when others start to piss you off.

is it possible that you:
- walk away and ignore?
- carefreely confide in a 3rd party?
- engage in activities that you enjoy and free your mind?
- ...
- ...
- ...
you decide. all the best.

do u think i am doing the right thing, is this logic. i am suppose to take antelol medication but i tried not to. so what i do is i try to lose weight., i am doing cycling at gym everyday for 30mins and today i burn 50 kal and my heart rate today is 122. is that ok? ok then i am going to relax myself and cool down.

i don't want to take medication. doc is putting me to do the 24hr bp test next week, so i think i see how the progress till next week before bp test. for now i eat less, i breathe properly, and i go exercises and walk more. do u think that can helps to bring down my bp.

i am going to take xanax. has anybody taken xanax? i hope that can hlep before my test bp date. i am really hoping i can do it. i feel lighter after 2 days of exercises. how much should heart rate be when we exercise. for 30mins mine remain at 122.

tiggersgd SG

trying to lose weight? how much do u weigh?

i think u should relax more n by that it may mean less exercise in the gym bcos exercising also increase BP somewhat. instead, y not go for longer walks (more than 30mins) which is more relaxing?

as for taking medicines, pls try to stick to ur doctor's prescription. trust ur doctor and thereby learn to also trust urself more in the process (not that u r not already Smile )

what i can think of alternatively is also talking more to ur frens, frens who listen to you and can relate mutually. talking to love ones also help...and yes, dun think too much or bother too much with regards to what others think of u or say to u. just learn to let go...one ear in, the other ear out. Wink

take gd care. Smile

This is probably the last time I'm telling you AGAIN...

If you bother to see a doctor, you should bother to stick to the doctor's advices... If you have to think otherwise, it's either 1. you discuss with your doctor... 2. You get another doctor's opinion 3. You know VERY WELL what you're doing..... Seems to me like you're in none of the categories above...

Telling you again... The LEAST you can do is not to make your condition WORSE... What follows after you're not taking ALL's advices is gonna be yuor own funeral...

PS. Consider taking up blog writing if you just wanna tell a story of what you do each day.
