Have you ever had high blood pressure from an early age which has never seemed to be totally under control despite medication?

1 Answer

Answer :

I’d lean towards genetic. It’s in my entire family. The only person not on meds is my mother. But, if we follow the guidelines we can control it. It takes some discipline and it’s not easy, but it’s manageable. I’m male, I doubt it’s hormonal. :)
