You can spend 8-10 hours per day on PARF. And you can keep the $8 in your wallet. SmileWavy

I believe this has to do with blood pressure? You can pm me if u feel comfortable doing that re blood pr. I started blood pr. pills about 3 years ago to avoid risking heart attack/stroke. Being pre hypertensive I would hazard a guess that your bl. pr. is on the high side? I am not a doctor or med. prof. so my info would be strictly what I experienced.

I reread your question. You should get a doc's advice but what I have done is keep weight down. Check what your weight should be for your height. Exercise is important but get guidance from your doc. My wife and I walk about an hour a day. The exercisie burns off calories. Diet for us? Calorie reduced. Read food labels.
Forget fast food. Reduce red meat intake. More vegs., more fruit, less salt, eat bananas , raisins etc. Pretty boring eh? No milk chocolate, some dark choc. is okay!Less saturated fat. Go online for this kind of thing. Less stress.

To do
 
Low salt, low to no caffeine, Low to no alcohol, moderate exercise, no smoking, maintain a normal weight, get good sleep, avoid NSAIDs (Advil, Motrin, aleve, etc). If no help in 3 months take blood pressure medication.

Consult your doctor for specific information on your own health

I've got some stuff I'll send you for $8 (plus shipping and handling). I'll even pay for your estate to send it back if it doesn't work.

buy a home unit blood pressure monitor thing. about $70, and you can use flex spending :D

you will soon learn what your triggers are..kinda fun checking your BP.

exercise daily about 30 minutes a day, and do what you can to lose weight. even 5 lbs is a huge diff with the BP monitor.

Mrmerlin 04-24-2012 06:18 PM

From one of the heart docs i fly, he suggested
83mg Bayer aspirin 1 a day
200mg CoQ10 1 a day
2000 mgs of fish oil (usually found in 1000mg pills) 2 a day
A good multi vitamin
after 6 months of this I am at 120 over 70
it was up to 155 over 85
EKG also looks good

Joe Bob,

That is JUST wrong.....:eek::eek::D



I'll give ya the $8.00 but what you need young man is exercise!!!! Exercise will take care of that stressed feeling and leave you stronger and more able to face the day.

So here is what you do: Get a round trip bus ticket (open end return) to Eastern Oklahoma. In-Laws will pick you up and you can ride in the back of the Model A pick-up back to the farm. We have already fenced two of the forty acre pastures so you will be left with only one of them to finish, and only on three sides!!!! Once completed you can start on the tree farm as it's fencing needs mending but not completely replaced. This should warm you up for the four sides of the 80 acre hay patch. This will require completely removing the existing fence and prepping the old wire for recycling and grading the posts as to whether we can re-use or replace. Once completed with the three small zones you will feel refreshed and ready to re-start your life! Believe me once and listen to me three times, we will feel much better once you have finished these three little chores for us!!!! :D

Might I suggest selling spare p-car parts or a visit to PARF? I hear the former will make you filthy rich and the latter just filthy. The BP will drop when you stop :). Good one...
