Weekly Goal — Know Thy Blood Pressure

Posted Apr 06 2009 7:17pm

We know it as the “silent killer.” Unchecked high blood pressure kills thousands of people each year from strokes, heart attacks, and heart disease. Without outward symptoms, many don’t realize their risk. The only way to know is to check. You owe it to yourself, your family, and your loved ones.

Checking and tracking your blood pressure at home is a good way to give you a true picture of your risk. At the doctor’s office when you’re tense and anxious over a visit may not give you an accurate overall view. If your family has a history of it, it is wise for you to keep track. Taking your blood pressure at home is easy. Keep a record of your results. It could save your life.

Weekly Goal: Know and track my blood pressure.
