Interesting. OK, I'm menopausal. I can get angry! I hate being angry, but it's a sort of internal scream. Bleh.
However, of such interest is the fact that I have been positively jolly for the last two days and my BP has dropped from 138 to 118. I am tracking it pre-op. It's a good reason to stay cheerful!! What say you lot?

Yes SilverLady they do reckon that bp reacts to moods and being angry is not recommended. The more relaxed you can be the better the blood pressure!

Silverlady what meds are you on? Have had alot of procedures in hospital recently and although I think I am calm my BP is always over 200. Doctor is trying to get it down without much success. Help!!

A friend on a 24 hour BP monitor found hers was significantly lower during the time she was at choir. So there you are, start singing and lower your BP.
