Nice! Getting it normal is so important. I'm a physician so if any bwe members need advice feel free.

Ugh, you guys have pretty good numbers! I was hoping to not be the highest.

My BP lingers around 130/79 and was around 150/90 at it's worst. I was diagnosed with a leaky mitral valve last year and have to try to maintain a lower BP to try to prolong my time before replacement. A low sodium diet helps, but fitness is really the only thing that seems to curb the high BP and I haven't been as active with fitness as of late!
