have you check your blood pressure yet ?
beware...

Optimal blood pressure with respect to cardiovascular risk is systolic
pressure _120 mm Hg and diastolic pressure _80 mm Hg. However,
unusually low readings should be evaluated for clinical significance.
cBased on the average of two or more readings taken at each of two or
more visits after an initial screening.

In general, individuals with blood pressure ranges considered borderline
high (i.e., systolic of 130 to 139 mm Hg or diastolic of 85 to
89 mm Hg) should have their blood pressures rechecked within 1
year. Blood pressures in the stage 1 range should be confirmed within
2 months by repeated measurements; however, certain lifestyle approaches
are appropriate even at this level. Blood pressures that are
markedly elevated (e.g., systolic _180 mm Hg or diastolic _110 mm
Hg) or those associated with evidence of existing end-organ damage

may require immediate pharmacologic intervention. In general,
whether pharmacologic intervention is initiated, a nonpharmacologic
approach is the foundation of any management strategy

Can u check my blood preasure please? :) :P

wacth out

Never check it... Well, I'm not adult yet... :P

We usually think of high blood pressure, or hypertension, as a problem that affects adults. But in fact, this condition can be present at all ages, even in infancy. About five of every 100 children have higher than normal blood pressure, although fewer than one in 100 has medically significant hypertension.

The term blood pressure actually refers to two separate measurements: systolic blood pressure is the highest pressure reached in the arteries as the heart pumps blood out for circulation through the body; and diastolic blood pressure is the much lower pressure that occurs in the arteries when the heart relaxes to take blood in between beats. If either or both of these measurements are above the range found in healthy individuals of similar age and sex, it's called hypertension.

Hypertension is more common among individuals of color than whites. It also seems to be more prevalent in some parts of the world; for example, it's very rare among Alaskan Eskimos but affects as many as 40 of every 100 adults in northern Japan. In many cases hypertension seems to develop with age. As a result, your child may show no signs of high blood pressure as an infant but may develop the condition as she grows.

In most instances of high blood pressure, no known cause can be identified. However, when hypertension becomes severe in children, it's usually a symptom of another serious problem, such as kidney disease or abnormalities of the heart, or the nervous or endocrine (gland) system.

So how, exactly, do kids get high blood pressure in the first place?
Although hypertension can be caused by other health problems, tots and teens with high blood pressure often have a family history of the condition and tend to lead unhealthy lifestyles, with a bad diet, too much weight and/or stress, and not enough exercise.

Me : 120/80

good..
keep it like that, you have normal BP
do you often exercise ?

What about cholesterol?
Cholesterol is a nature product present in food oil which accumulates on blood vessels and makes it narrow leading to high blood velocity and high prssure..

Exercise of what mate?

me ?
i never check, unless sick..i think i should check soon.
tegezan, i ever read that sport, some physical exercise can control BP to normal..
he he.. lets see what doctor say

I play football every saturday.. Futsal every tuesday.. Just that..

wow..
that's really sports bro.

well i am making a running exercise everyday to catch the bus!!  ;)

yes, sport is good for us.
decrease fat level, stabilize BP, decrease Diabetic risk, and so many advantages rather than farmakologic drugs

If I wasn't wrong, i was born with a problem with my heart, so my normal blood pressure is only about 50/80, even after i sprint with a bike for about 15 minutes (i caught up a motorcycle that time, imagine how fast i got that time.....) i can only topped about 80/120

can you remember what diagnose that probably to you ?
was it Tetralogi Fallot.
did you got cyanosis when you cry, or hard activity

what's up doc !
can you explain us, what happen in our blood vessel

Um, if i wasn't wrong, the doctor said to my parents that the cardio said that my right heart isn't as developed as the left one

there is a few diagnose, but still, examination must done to make sure (example : ECG,or other cardiologic examination )

well, let see about this one :

Hypoplastic right heart syndrome
Hypoplastic right heart syndrome is a congenital heart defect in which the right ventricle of the heart fails to grow and develop appropriately
The underdeveloped ventricle cannot contain the proper amount of blood pumped from the right atrium
The ventricle’s muscle structure is poor, so additional problems are encountered as the heart attempts to pump blood to the pulmonary valve for transfer to the lungs
Babies born with hypoplastic right heart syndrome tend to be cyanotic, blue, shortly after birth. If the condition has not been diagnosed earlier, the obstetrician or pediatrician will hear a discernible murmur with a stethoscope
An echocardiogram can then confirm diagnosis

NOTE : Cyanotic: The babies with cyanotic heart disease are commonly known as Blue Babies, because of bluish discolouration (Cyanosis) of their skin, nails, lips and tongue

Hahaha, thanks for the explanation, but up until now, i'm still fine, and reviewing from these past few years, i don't think the God want me to go face him sooner, or maybe wishing me to stay weak on bed. Up until now, i still got healthy (i'm quite that hard to get sick or hurt type), just this noon (i post this at night) i got struck by a motorcycle, the driver was nervy and unable to control her motorcycle, thus hitting me and my bicycle from right-back, but i'm fine, she fell, but i'm not, so i, as the victim, need to go and help her ???

I have some pains in the area of the heart recently... It's starting for few seconds and then go away. It's very weak pain and I am sure it's not from the heart itself (it never hurts as far as I know)... Maybe I need to go to a doctor if it does not stop.

which side, exploited ?
left chest or right chest.
well, chest pain is a symptom (eg. angina pectoris). sometimes the chest pain is not only occure at one place, we call it 'referred pain', but also at left side part of body, back neck, or any places.
we should beware about this.
so, which side it was ?

left chest

left ?
if you often got that little attack, then i suggest you to go to check that.

chest pain
pain.. where is it come from ?
what happen with heart

Jemau turns to be our official doctor here aren't he?

yes, he is.. :)

let see..:

In medicine, chest pain is a symptom of a number of serious conditions and is generally considered a medical emergency. Even though it may be determined that the chest pain is non-cardiac in origin this is often a diagnosis of exclusion made after ruling out more serious causes of pain.


Major Causes of Chest Pain

    *  Cardiac diseases
        (1) Resulting from blockages in coronary arteries
        (2) Resulting from other cardiac problems (such as pericarditis)
    *  Musculoskeletal diseases of the chest wall, shoulders, etc.
    *  Gastrointestinal diseases (especially gall bladder, acid reflux, ulcer)
    *  Cervical arthritis or other neurological conditions


Cardiopulmonary

Important cardiovascular and pulmonary causes of chest pain:

    * Acute coronary syndrome
          o Unstable Angina Pectoris - requiring emergency medical treatment but not primary         intervention as in a myocardial infarction
          o Myocardial infarction ("heart attack")
    * Aortic dissection
    * Pericarditis
    * Pulmonary embolism
    * Pneumonia
    * Hemothorax
    * Pneumothorax and Tension pneumothorax
    * Arrhythmia - atrial fibrillation and a number of other arrhythmias can cause chest pain.

Features of the pain suggest of cardiac ischaemia are describing the pain as heaviness; radiation of the pain to neck, jaw or left arm; sweating; nausea; palpitations; the pain coming upon exertion; dizziness; shortness of breath and a "sense of impending doom."

hmm...let see what happens when cholesterol creates plaque on Artery :

What is cholesterol?

Think of cholesterol as the repair kit for our arteries. The inner lining of our arties needs to be super smooth so that blood can easily flow through it, but sometimes we get little nicks from wear and tear such as nicotine, high blood pressure, stress or too much fat in the diet. Think of it like a few tiles coming off the bottom of a swimming pool. Cholesterol acts as the grout to fill these holes and prevent further damage. The problem is one type of cholesterol fixes these nicks beautifully whilst the other does such a patchy job that it makes the arteries even more rough and congested.

Thanks for explanation  :)
btw i am a chemist studied cholesterol before as a chemical substance.. 
 u reminds me with the diagrams of my faculty sections...
 i am sure u know that in medical labs tests like (LDL,HDL,CHk) are tests performed to monitor blood pressure(LDL,HDL) and heart attack(CHK) diseases

thank you mate.  :)
feel nice if we can help another peoples, see how the patients trust us, try to never dissappointing them




nice, happy to know that you are chemist  :)

The four major classes of lipoproteins include the triglyceride-rich particles—chylomicrons and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL)—and the cholesterol-rich particles—low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL)

Combined dyslipidemia, a very common and important disorder, is found in a high percentage of patients who survive myocardial infarction or have coronary revascularization.
Combined dyslipidemias include abnormalities of several lipoproteins, usually elevated LDL-C and TG with low HDL-C. Family history will often include the presence of multiple first-degree family members with CHD. As these disorders may be polygenic, affected patients and family members often present with a variety of dyslipidemias, including approximately one third with elevated TG, one third with elevated LDLC alone, and the rest with a combined dyslipidemia.

well done jemau manak... i am working in microbiology unit in the biggest medical lab in Egypt..all what u mentioned i know very well but not in details like u...as u know in my study i concern in principle about chemical compositions ,the reaction kinetics..what values change and control the reactions..(temperature,time,concentrations and PH of the reaction)..  etc i hope all the members understand what u sent...........did u finish ur study?

thank you very much ahmed.
you have a great work too. it's must be difficult to understand your study.
i am sorry if members don't understand, i try to make it very simple as i can. with some friendly pictures.. just wan't to share. litlle education.
yes, i already finished my study, thank you

the topic is very informative... Thank you for the suggestion - I will go to a doctor in Monday.

By the way the last few days I stopped drinking Coca Cola and other sugar drinks and it stopped... I hope it's not diabettes :(

wow, we have a Doctor too..
greeting  :)
nice topic, great knowledge

what about praise ? only on Phone boards (sorry i don't know rules yet), since i am newbie.
nice join here
 

i got head ache...

doctor~~doctor~~ where is the doctor?

He dissapeared too..

it's better now after sleep few hours...
i feel fresh !!
