The shitty thing with high blood pressure is that 90-95% of the time, the cause is unknown...kinda like hives. No one in my family has this problem and I'm a relatively healthy person so the doc's best guess right now is a combo of stress, a high sodium diet and my recent lack of exercise. So for the time being, I have to be on meds, which is cool with me, the last thing I want is to put unnecessary strain on my heart at such a young age...and that's what I've been doing as my blood pressure has been high ever since I've been checking it on a regular basis (for about a year).
