WDDTY - What Doctors Don't Tell You
http://www.wddty.com/raised-blood-pressure-doesn-t-cause-heart-problems-if-you-are-over-60.html
Once you reach the age of 60, you will probably be told to start taking
an antihypertensive, a drug to lower your blood pressure. It’s one of
the routine medications offered to older people as a just-in-case
therapy – but the doctor couldn’t be more wrong, new research has
discovered.
Raised blood pressure which is in the ‘high normal’ range
becomes less of a risk factor as we get older, and doesn’t cause
cardiovascular disease or coronary heart disease, as doctors have
believed for the past 50 years or more.
Drugs to lower blood pressure
should be given only to people who are younger than 60 years, say
researchers from the Prevention of Metabolic Disorders Research Centre
in Tehran, Iran. There is still evidence that raised blood pressure in
the middle-aged can cause serious health problems, they say.
Their
findings were based on a major study of 6,273 people aged from 30 years
and older, all with varying degrees of hypertension, who were monitored
for more than nine years.

Use the labels in the right column to find what you want. Or you can go thru them one by one, there are only 28,972 posts. Searching is done in the search box in upper left corner. I blog on anything to do with stroke.DO NOT DO ANYTHING SUGGESTED HERE AS I AM NOT MEDICALLY TRAINED, YOUR DOCTOR IS, LISTEN TO THEM. BUT I BET THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET YOU 100% RECOVERED. I DON'T EITHER, BUT HAVE PLENTY OF QUESTIONS FOR YOUR DOCTOR TO ANSWER.
Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.
What this blog is for:
My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.
