It isn't the lowest dose, sqad. My bisoprolol are 1.25.

[Patsy33]

Pixie, I believe they might do a smaller dose. I'll see what doctor says. I've given in readings at surgery, well my husband did.

[Sqad]

pixie....she is on the lowest dose in the morning.

[pixie374]

Ok, let's see what they say x

[pixie374]

She is on 2.5 morning and same evening. I take 1.25 morning.

[Sqad]

pixie....I stand corrected.

[Patsy33]

2 1/2 mg morning and again in evening, so 5 mg.

The nurse did say to me doctor will probably tweak beta blockers.
Never felt like this before though...

[pixie374]

No worries, sqad x they are on it patsy. Try what they suggest and see how you feel then x

I can't see any advantage of working out a blood pressure average. For instance it's like saying the average family has 2.5 children, but who knows a family with two and a half children in it?

Thanks pixie

[Patsy33]

Thank you too, sqad.

This will work out your readings, the calculator is at the bottom of page. I use this myself.

Ella S. Fish goes to doctor. Doctor says, "Hello, Madame Salmon. What brings you in today?"

Ella Fish replies, "Are you still making that dreadful pun with my name. Anyway, the answer is EVERYTHING. I hurt my back at work, I have a cold, my eyesight is going, and I have high blood pressure."

The doctor raises his eyebrows, jots down some notes on his clipboard, and says, "Okay, Mrs Salmon, what's your lifestyle like? Do you eat healthy, get enough sleep, all that?"

"Oh, yes," replies Ella. "I eat organic, sleep at least 7 hours a night, and I never drink or smoke."

At that, the doctor smiles and slaps his knee. "Well that's your problem!" he exclaims. "Let me write you a prescription for some Marlboros."

Ella is dumbfounded. "Doctor, why?"

The doctor finishes writing the prescription, rips it off his pad, and hands it over.. "You need to start smoking," he says, "because smoking cures salmon, Ella."
