You all sound pretty lucky. I have hereditary high cholesterol and high blood pressure. (both sides of the family) I eat healthy and get plenty of exercise. Normal for me is about 140/85. I am on a mild dose of Metoprolol, 25mg. (a generic for Toprolol XT) I also take 1500mg of Niacin a day for the cholesterol. I feel as healthy as a horse.
