Had my BP checked this morning and very happy with the result. 132/70. I also took along the paper with my own recordings done each month on the 1st of the month. The lovely nurse worked out the average and it came to 119/62 which she said was perfect. I asked her why it was the reading it was in the surgery and she replied most people have a spike in their BP when having it done at the GP's, its 'nerves'!!!! lol. That did make me smile She also reminded me that now over 65 i am entitled to the Pneumonia jab and she went into great detail about the benefits of having it done. Will book at the end of the month as the surgery has none at present, but good to know why i should have it done.
