well i do ever since my mom had a stroke i became aware of it and been checking regularly and that includes my husband too..doctor told me that pressure in our body can be compared to a bomb that will explode if we dont pay any attention to it and the awareness of having to eat a healthy diet and a regular excercises and avoid any stressful activities..

Whew! I cant help but give a little thought about this. The last time I remember that I had my blood pressure check up was the time that I gave birth to my youngest daughter. But I know how to get the blood pressure, I always check the blood pressure of my father and my mother.
Maybe it's just that they don't know how to get it, thats why I never had the chance to let them get it for me.

Hello dear vanities. I do not check my blood pressure and have checked only a few times to find that it was normal when being checked. But I think that you are quite right that we check our blood pressure every day to see how our blood pressure is going on so that we know more of our health. Yeah, healthy diet and proper exercise and free of stressful activities are also that important to us to avoid blood pressure. Thanks very much for this helpful discussion. Take care, friend.

Yes I do check it fairly regularly. There are quite a few places we can do that. My hubby and I check ours in Wal-Mart. The doctor also checks it when we are there. So far we are both doing well with no reason for concern. We also monitor our cholesterol as well.
We eat healthy...but are a little lax on the regular exercise. However, we have a split level house with a lot of stairs...and that does count the doctor says. Once summer comes we are a lot more active.
Good post...keeps people mindful.
