No more "maybe I should exercise more so that the blood pressure will go down and I don't have to pop the pill", no more maybe, I just started on high blood pressure medication, which I have been putting off for the past year. I did my ecg last week, had my blood test on Tuesday and started on Norvasc and hope for the best.

I dislike having to rely on chemical to regulate my health, but I have no choice as I risk damage to my heart and kidneys.
