Thank you all....
I'm about to head off on a 6 day pattern, and it would be remiss of me to fail to acknowledge and thank the positive respondants thus far. A sincere thank you to you all (maybe now that I'm not worried, my BP may drop a few points
).
Ginge, thanks for your good advice. A bit late to choose parents, but Mum and Dad are 85 and 90 respectively, working, and in good health. Grandfather died at 102 after a hard days work, he smoked 60 a day.
I THOROUGHLY agree with you and others about giving up the fags, a 43 year habit is hard to break, but........ my AME (
with tongue in cheek) says that giving up may lower my BP even further, to the point where my heart stops altogether. My advice to young people is
QUIT! you don't want to end up like me.
Best Regards,
Old Smokey
