Here's how far I'm against the medical industry/Big Pharma. My blood pressure, even at home, is what the doctors would call extremely high, but the only symptom I've had is very occasional very minor heart palpitations, which I resolved with a cayenne pepper blend. I remember being 10 years old (1963) and seeing a TV commercial where a woman was talking about how her husband died from high blood pressure with no symptoms. She called it a 'silent killer', and then encouraged everyone to run to their doctor and have their blood pressure checked. Why did that make such a big impression on me such that I'd remember it so clearly all these years later? I've concluded (and I could be wrong) it's because I'd need that information now to recognize that the blood pressure thing is basically a scam, especially as just 3 or 4 years later the big scare was high cholesterol and there are indications that's a scam, too. And now we have the virus/jab thing, where we can see so many doctors ignoring actual scientific evidence and blithely sticking people with poison, so I don't trust any of them to actually be concerned about my health and wellbeing. At any rate, I'm otherwise entirely healthy, and I'm just going to live my life being happy and take my chances.
I think it's a scam too, and here is how I believe it is being perpetuated. First of all I'm a nurse and usually work in long term care aka nursing homes. Whenever I used the digital BP machine my patients would read higher than normal. Then I'd check them with the manual set and it would usually be 20 to 30 points lower. Also, for the past year every time I had to see a med pro my BP would be very high, and of course they wanted to prescribe meds for it. Last time I was there and it came up high again. I insisted they do a manual reading and surprise surprise it was thirty points lower. With the digital set it causes the cuff to become so tight that it automatically reads high. Manual set you really can't make it do that unless you repeatedly pump up the cuff.
Thank you! At the eye doctor and the dentist, they now take BP, the only places I've had it checked, and they use digital. I bought a BP monitor to check at home, of course digital, and it reads the same or worse. On top of that, I noticed something with the digital BP monitors that I never noticed with the old style, which is that they can make my heart start pounding. With your input, I'm throwing the home version in the trash ($20 down the drain, but at least I got some AAA batteries for my trouble), and I'm telling the eye doctor and the dentist they can check my BP if they want, but only with a manual device.
Another way I think it's being perpetuated is that for 18 years I transcribed medical reports and I seem to remember somewhere along the line they lowered the values for what is acceptable (just as they did with the BMI). On top of that, we only know what the medical industry decided to tell us is 'normal', and who's to say their values were ever valid to begin with?
You're welcome. Yes! You may have to bring your own manual BP device. I stopped using a rather fancy digital device that cost me over 100 bucks, but it was garbage. They did lower the standard for normal BP. Used to be 120/80 but now that's considered borderline high. Gotta prescribe those meds for big Pharma or no nice kickbacks.
I must be remembering when they lowered it to 120/80 because there was a time that doctors were satisfied with 130s to 140s over 80s to 90s.
The "science" flips back and forth all the time. It's also why I don't buy the shit the peddle. There's too much money on the line for them to tell us the truth. They don't want us to get healthier.
