High blood pressure can be due to circumstances and one reading does not indicate that one should be medicated for this condtion..but if you ever go to the doctor repeatedly and your pressure falls constantly on the high side, would you just accept the medications prescribed by your doctor or are you a negotiator that would suggest to him that a different diet and exercise program would be something you would try first before taking a medicine to treat it? If you have ever been diagnosed with HBP, have you followed your treatment plan? Have you taken the medicine? Do you take you BP at home to make sure it is remaining at a safe level?

How would/did you react when told about HBP..and do you consider it a serious threat to your life?
