Just the other day, I was feeling pretty lousy. With a high temperature,
feeling alternately hot and cold, it was an absolute shoo-in that I had an
infection and a fever, but being a stoic, I tried to shake it off without
visiting the doctor.
Unsuccessfully as it turned out, so I relented (eventually) and off I went
to see the man who could fix me up.
I have a pretty good idea what is wrong and after I explain the
symptoms, so does he, but here’s the thing. What is the first thing that
he does?
He takes my blood pressure.
I don’t have a blood pressure problem as far as I am aware – I have an
infection – but the first thing he does is take my BP.
Maybe this scenario sounds familiar? I would guess so, because it is
almost inevitable that when you visit your doctor or any other health
care professional, the first thing that they are going to do is take your
blood pressure.
Perhaps you have wondered why this might be the case, why your
doctor should be so concerned about your blood pressure when 90% of
the time, the condition that has driven you to their office or surgery has
got nothing whatsoever to do with BP.
