Discusses sources of information she has discovered on hypertension, including the Internet.

 



I've been given a booklet from the British Heart Foundation which has been quite helpful. It tells you about the drugs, it tells you about what exactly is being measured when you have your blood pressure done and explains about the systolic and diastolic rates, and so on. It tells you what is average and it tells what you what you can do in the way of changing lifestyle to help your problem.

I am aware that there are web sites and we do have the Internet. In fact, our GP in our local parish bulletin has given the names of various web sites and the British Heart Foundation one was one of them.
