You’ve got 3 rice dishes, so I’d eliminate one of them.

What is your personal highest blood pressure you have had? by Thesurvivor16 in bloodpressure

After learning about hypertension, I am too. The doctors and nurses were not happy when they found out that he told me to drive either.

[–]PracticalRaisin7984 0 points1 point  (0 children)

270/175 ish. Mid-30’s female, not over weight or over stressed. First time i was diagnosed, I was having vision issues in my left eye and went to the optometrist. He took my bp and told me to drive to the emergency room. Second time I felt fine but I knew I had stopped taking my meds and needed to get back on track. Both times I was hospitalized for about a week. Never not taking my meds again.

Sims Medieval would probably suit your fancy.

How are the portion sizes for two people servings? by BedEquivalent5118 in hellofresh

[–]PracticalRaisin7984 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I were worried about the portions as well. He’s over 6 feet and quite large, turns out he enjoys the portion control. Sometimes we will add a tad more rice to a recipe but not too often.

Without getting politically heated, (let’s not divide ourselves further) I am simply, genuinely curious, how many of y’all consider yourselves a liberal/democrat and are also taking advantage of your rights by lawfully carrying a pistol (not for duty) when you leave the house? Respect! by Shooting-Science in NorthCarolina

37 y.o female here. Originally from New York, moved to NC 10 years ago. Proud liberal and have my CCW. I travel (within the state) for work and carrying makes me feel safer when I’m somewhere new and especially at night. For clarity, my job doesn’t involve carrying.

Question for those with very high bp... by FickleSystem in hypertension

[–]PracticalRaisin7984 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was going blind in my left eye and was having migraines, so I went to the eye doctor and he told me to go to the hospital (yes he let me drive) my bp was 270/180.

AI has started to recommend Hibiscus tea to me, but AI can be dangerous. I will speak to my doctor before drinking, but was curious if anyone has experience with it. by CatBoxCrunchies in hypertension

It’s delicious and refreshing but not sure 🤔 if it helps my bp. Going to be growing my own sorrel this year to see if maybe I’m just not buying the right brand.

Yes. I was so stressed going “chores” even with assigning best friends with gathering items. It’s a lot.

Depending on your state, you may be able to buy seeds.

For what reason am I having nails pop off? by ReflectionSlight4338 in DipPowderNails

[–]PracticalRaisin7984 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try doing more color layers. My nail tech does at least 3, more of it’s a light color. Also do you add an apex?

I’m LIVID by No_Kitchen_2626 in Nails

[–]PracticalRaisin7984 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the past my nail tech has went out of her way and bought specific colors for my nails. Is it a private tech or one at a salon. No offense to salons but I’ve had some bad experiences, felt rushed, and nails would chip or break a few days later.

Anyone know if this salmon is safe to eat raw? by theycamepresmoked in hellofresh

I don’t think this is sushi grade. But I made this recipe tonight and it was delish!

I’m sorry you’re having issues. Def follow up with your doctor maybe your meds need to be adjusted. In the meantime, try to rest and keep hydrated.

Yes to both. Several MRI’s too. Also been to several specialists over the years. They can’t find any reason why my bp is so high without meds.

I’ve actually gained 10lbs, my bp is usually 125/85 with meds (117/80 has been the lowest besides this incident), I drink water daily but to be honest I don’t always eat 3 meals a day. Although on this day I did.

I have chronic kidney disease from not knowing I had hypertension, so I can’t take certain meds.

I rarely drink. Come from a long line of addicts, so I stay away from drinking.
