I think I may have had a heart attack a day ago and I am doing my research on it. I am the type who hates drugs to fix health problems, even aspirin. So far, I got everything balanced: the anti-smoking, the alcohol intake, the physical activities, and I beleive I have no stress. All I need now is to know about stabalizing blood pressure and blood cholesterol.

Cass M asked:
So, I just went in to get birth control and I was told that my blood pressure is a little higher than they would like. I’m going back in next week to get it re-checked, hoping things will have calmed down in my life.
What are options for birth control (besides condoms) if someone has high blood pressure? Are there just different types of pills, or IUD, or patch, or what? I forgot to ask when I was at the office. Any help would be great.

Mommy-to-Be asked:
I bought a manual inflate arm cuff blood pressure monitor that gives out a digital reading. The pharmacist recommended it over the auto inflate b/c it was half the price and he said that would be the only difference. The reason i purchased one is b/c i’m pregnant and my BP has been in the 140′s over 80′s at my docs office lately. When i take my BP at home with this monitor, it’s been in the 120′s over 70′s. It’s made by HoMedics. Thanks!

I purchased a new Omron blood pressure monitor. It has the irregular heart beat detector in it. I’ve been monitoring my BP for three weeks and no irregular beats have been detected until today.
I purchased a new Omron blood pressure monitor. It has the irregular heart beat detector in it. I’ve been monitoring my BP for three weeks and no irregular beats have been detected until today.
However, I think I might have been moving my arm a little and been tensed up. So my question is, how accurate is the irregular heart beat feature? Can it make an error?
Anyone else have one of these monitors detect an irregular beat before?
