#average blood pressure

[flamboyant-king]

I had an Isaac run where it was so stressful my heartrate was at a 145bpm and it persisted for 6 hours. After that, like every day that followed, my heart would just suddenly shoot up to 120-140bpm for an hour if I so much as thought about something I've been stressing over recently. Everybody encouraging me to go to the ER. And I'm just like "Oh please I've actually always been like this, I'm fine." Had to chop down my Adderall dosage. But I swear I've felt like this since high school, but I guess the medicine enhances the feeling and that feeling was ANXIETY.

So, suffice to say, playing The Binding of Isaac™️ almost gave me a heart attack.

#and its not the adderall thats just inducing the heartrate #cause i only got prescribed adderall this year #dad got diagnosed with afib when i was still in school. he rushed himself to the hospital with mom while i was taking a test #i was like what the heck where did you guys go and mom said oh dad was having a heart attack or something and we didnt want to bother you #like WOULDNT YOU TELL YOUR CHILD OH MAYBE YOU WONT SEE YOUR FATHER AFTER WE GO TO THE HOSPITAL BUT FINISH YOUR EXAM BABY #that was like 2020 and we have a couple of those oxygen readers for your fingers and it measures your heartbeat #i out one on for fun im just sitting there at the dinner table and my heartrate was at 120 #like i didnt do anything we been stuck at home because pandemic and we just having a nice dinner #and my heartbeat was just thats my resting heartrate. they told me to try the blood pressure thing #average blood pressure but truly my heartbeat was just vibing at 120. mis padres were like oh no maybe you have afib too #babes youre too young to have that. and i jsut said oh is that what it means when im nauseous and have to lie down #i havent been diagnosed with anything. i suspect is tachycardia but no official thing #although i havent seen a cardiologist. what if we pay to get a screening and its nothing #i dont want to go thru all that and let it be nothing. lets wait until its a real problem #when my brother and his family visited just like what two weeks ago he was like #he was sitting on moms exercise bike and said it reads your heartrate #and it did you put your hands on the handle and it reads yer pulse #i told him like oooh let me try. hey brother my resting heartrate is 120 a lot. and hes like. what. get on this thing #and i get off the couch literally resting and lay my hands on the handles #and we see it go up. from 80 to 90 to 100 to 110 to 120 and hes a nurse and my moms a nurse and he says go upstairs and rest #dont hang out here with the kids. and im like ha i already told mom #he said sit there for ten minutes dont do anythingg and were trying again #he got mom to call our doctor and my doctor said to stop taking the adderall which is NOT IDEAL theres worse repurcussions to stop cold #so i cut mine in half. cause i had a dosage of 20mg and i almost fainted at work. we died the dosage down to 15 #but after all that i cut my 15 down to 7.5 cause hey i cant stop cold but i can ween myself #brother said i shouldnt be taking adderall if im not doing anything that requires focus. but im like i need focus to live man #look at how much ive been drawing...i mean its only in like hour long intervals but its productive #so theres that. i can feel my heartrate already up but i guess its just a thing with me...anywho #doodles #the binding of isaac

Tis' the season where I mentally and physically suffer. Complaining below (feel free to ignore, I'm just venting. I usually do this every year to get most of it out of my system lol):

mmm the fall/winter SAD is indeed in full swing. No warmth + no sun = a bad bad time. I always get so annoyed when ppl assume that I love winter bc I'm a "winter baby", as if that has any sort of divine intervention on instantaneously adapting you to perfectly fit the climate you were born in. NOPE. Silly human superstition. I start to freeze once it hits below 20C. I wish I lived in a warmer climate o|-< The depresso is probably going to make me very whiny and moody until next spring, so an early forewarning bc I'm EXTREMELY annoying about it this time of year bc it's the only way I know how to deal with it. But moreso in addition to the physical stuff is how badly it messes with my mind, making me so depressed to the point of just... sitting in non-moving silence where I become stiff as a board (very painful btw) and I isolate, making the bad depresso brain time even worse where I overthink everything bc of the silence and isolation. It's also always the time of year where everyone goes quiet too, which is understandable, but also makes things 10x worse (I am very alone in my life and where I am, and kind of rely on online friends bc they're all I have. I don't even have a pet. I'm literally just, loner mode. I don't really have much family to speak of, and only one family member I do speak to. I have little to no connections at all. But regardless, this is still the best living situation I've been in my whole life, so that's saying something).

#i hate the cold; I hate ice; cold air hurts my skin and burns my lungs #i hate snow (I'm sorry I just don't think it's pretty. It's gross; erases all colour/everything; blinding; kills everything; claustrophobic #I hate long nights; i hate all the darkness #I take Vitamin D drops every day during winter and they don't really help #I also use those special lights meant to help during the long darkness for the same reason; and they also do not help #nothing works!!!!!! eating and drinking hot things doesn't help me stay warm bc heat dissipates away quickly and doesn't help my extremitie #the cold makes me SO dry and dehydrated; makes my bones hurt; makes outside DANGEROUS AF. ICE IS BAD. BE CAREFUL. #I can't retain heat; my hypothyroidism makes me colder by default and I just don't metabolize good/fast enough to keep myself warm #(my body temp is lower than average; fun fact! same with my blood pressure! both of them are very low) #I think my average from all the times I've had it scanned during covid was 32-36C. No idea how that works; I just remember checking it a lo #my fingers and hands are going to freeze; making it harder to draw/type/etc. #I'm not going to wear gloves inside my home bc that's dumb and they don't help anyways. It will just screw up my ability to use my hands #I get to be in pain for months with increased potential of being sick :/ #also I HATE bundling/layering myself with clothing or blankets; it's suffocating; restricting; sensory hell for me; sweaters are uncomfy :( #also whenever I try to do that all it does is insulate the cold for me; keeping me colder for even longer!!!!! it's so unfair!!!! #I've worn out 2 space heaters already and they don't work properly anymore (I used them both so much I wore out my preferred settings lol) #sobs; i'm a sad plant lizard

2500mg of sodium so far today

Yay Addison's Disease

#my blood pressure finally came up to 110/70 by 1pm #normal people need somewhere around 1000mg #if you need a reference range #2500mg is considered max threshold of sodium for the average joe #I have had so many teas #they arent even teas anymore #they're just salt water with a little lemon #poor Bean has been working so much lately #we're obviously not doing much today

[menstits]

Good lord i don't need to know so many bullshit terms because then i just end up getting mad recreationally which is probably bad for my blood pressure

#🗨️ #actually my blood pressure is lower than average in the summer so I'm probably fine

[vote2]

none of the cardiologists at the hospital know what's wrong w my dad pls don't call him an "enigma" 😭😭

#how does he have an average blood pressure of 160+/90 yet an average bpm of like 40. normal behavior. #they wont let him work cases either cause its heart related so he just does the computer work while the surgery is #going on. hes on a plastic chair off to the side 😭 #new medication has lowered his blood pressure a bit its the only one thats worked but yeah. he goes to an ever more specialized #specialist soon 👍 so hopefully. #he also cant retired while theres an active treatment going on so like. hes set for end of next year i think but uhm. #this is already after taking three extra years extra for a bonus cause they wrre low on nurses

[kurouzus]

so my blood pressure is still very high out of nowhere just slightly less

#whyyyybare you doing that #my blood pressure is nornally perfect or just so so slightly above average bc im fucking terrified of those machines man

[reflectionsofgalaxies]

.

#ahahahahah just had a convo with my dad #about how he’s at the average age of death for men in his family #and I’m like. . . DAD this is Not Helping #I worry about his health all the time anyway #like he’s super active which im very glad for #but like. . . he does have issues with blood pressure and he’s had two cancer scares in two years #and other than his dad none of the men in his family going back several generations have lived past 65 #my dad is 60 #HIS dad is 93 which is. . . comforting I guess but he’s also in so much mental and physical pain constantly #he doesn’t recognize anyone anymore and he’s always distressed #we did have a good talk about how it’s hard for both of us to see him like that and it makes visiting upsetting #but he’s family and he deserves to not be alone #I think about seeing my dad like that and I don’t think I could handle it #my dad doesn’t want to live that long either #we made an agreement he’s gotta make it into his 80s #then it’s up to him when he goes #ANYWAY I feel like thinking about mortality has taken over the last two years of my life between my health issues my grandma’s cancer and #my aunt’s death and the death of my friend’s gf #I mean it also has coincided with Covid so it’s probably on a lot of people’s minds lately #anyway that’s it for my venting tonight I think #personal #health

I wish people didn't dismiss my nightmares as "just a couple of bad dreams". Yes they make my sleep quality horrendous, but I wake up in full body pain after them, I struggle to speak after days in a row of them, I literally see the scenes in my nightmares in real-life, like getting a fucking flashback. I'm more emotionally reactive because I spent my night seeing all my family die violent deaths, or getting beaten to death, or getting sexually assaulted. Like this is my experience 5 nights out of 7 and they get dismissed as "just a couple of bad dreams"

#about me #i genuinely don't know what to do at this point #the medication that reduces them but 40% is $30/month and i can't afford that #and im on a med thats supposed to help but we've only increased it by 1mg since may. and it hasn't worked yet #we may go up another 1mg if my blood pressure isn't too low #my average is 106/74 so im hoping that's high enough #because I can't properly function or enjoy life like this

[inmirova]

heart rate in the hundreds from the incredibly strenuous task of Creating Excel Spreadsheet

#if i have to chart my blood pressure for 3 months excel spreadsheet is the easiest way to keep track and average it out <3 #even though all my bp results are normal to slightly low #this is not a difficult task but my body is a nightmare. #just. not for blood pressure reasons which makes having to do this incredibly frustrating!

[pangur-and-grim]

yeaaaah, I saw that too.

it can be hard for people to understand that every species of animal has a unique set of physical and mental needs, and that (FOR THEIR OWN BENEFIT) they should not be treated like human beings.

here's an example: when a horse breaks its leg, often the kindest thing you can do is euthanize it. that is because horses have lightweight bones that tend to shatter, rather than simply snap, and all those sharp pieces can sever blood vessels and nerves, which leads to tissue death. your average horse weighs 1,000 pounds. that amount of weight redistributed to 3 legs leads to pressure necrosis on the remaining hooves.

the reason the horse would require euthanasia isn't because it's life isn't the same as an able-bodied horse. it is because its leg would rot off and then its hooves would rot off and then it would die.

I currently have a broken leg, and will not be euthanized because I am a human being. if I had both legs amputated, I could still have a wonderful life, because I am a human being.

similarly, if my cat broke a leg, or had to have a limb amputation, that would be fine (well, not fine, but you get the idea) because she weighs 9lbs and could scurry about just fine as a tripod.

if you understand what an animal needs, you'll be better equipped to know when it has a fighting chance. you'll also know that sometimes, the kindest thing you can do is put it to rest.

BY THE WAY if you're experiencing light-headedness, nausea and/or the area behind your ears ( and tummy in some cases ) are very warm/hot compared to the rest of your body, you may be experiencing low blood pressure/sugars!! try to stay as cool as possible, take antacids and eat something sugary, ice poles, fairy floss or marshmallows work best in my experience bc they're pretty light on the stomach, plus ice poles help cool you down and rehydrate. stay safe out there👍 -the blood pressurer

#advice #first aid #? #i get a lot of blood pressure/sugar issues bc my resting heart rate is a bit above average from what i've been told #so i know a good amount of quick fixes i learnt either from my mother or through trial and error #if you can't handle eating and/or are dehydrated a slushie or ice pole is best btw!

[lunarflare64]

GUESS WHOS FUCKING OVERHYDRATED???? THIS CLUSTER OF BITCHES SOMEHOW?????? WHAT THE FUCK?????

#hhhhhhhhh if this shit doesnt settle soon we're gonna go off on our dietitian she said we were finally drinking normal amounts of water #but then this shit happens???? #sorry for the tmi but we cant even tell if we've pissed when we look in the toilet its completely transparent #how the fuck did we manage that? did our body get so used to dehydration that regular hydration is too much??? #we'll keep going as usual to see if our body figures out what to do with all that water #but if it doesnt figure it out soon theres gonna be problems #we never thought we'd see the day TOO MUCH water became an issue #swear to god if this is because of our dietitian's 'water is the only way to be hydrated no other fluids count' bullshit #is this why our pots has been so bad? dude we need above average levels of sodium to keep our blood pressure up is this washing it all out? #calm down its only day two we'll keep an eye on it

[vote2]

my dad's gotta get his heart ablation next friday :s

#they like go up through the vein in the leg and burn the heart to make it beat more cause 20% isnt beating fullg #fully* so this should make his heart rate go above 30-40 average bmp -_- #so yay. still has stupid high blood pressure but this wont fix that but once this gets fixed he can start on some of the meds possibly #also hes only getting 2 days off but he did just get ten days off for flu so lol

[selamat-linting]

i get being fascinated by scary things and wanting to learn more about it but x reader fanfic writers are something else. like, ever consider that its a dick move to turn the most terrifying rare disease as angst fodder? esp when you potray it incorrectly.

#broo ffi isnt some cute wasting disease #the average age of onset is 40-50 years old (although younger patients did get it) #and their symptoms also include excessive sweating #blood pressure and body temperature that went haywire #because prions are literally eating away at their brains #they would shake and thrash on their beds uncontrollably #its agony! #please respect it for what it is #shaking my head #fandom wank

[shadowsayshi]

I love cooking but I can't stand

#idk why #my blood pressure is only slightly lower than average #and i don't have an iron deficieny #so why do i nearly faint whenever i stand for too long???

Astrology Observations-Part 2🌙

Having both Taurus and Aries placements in a chart can indicate someone who enjoys pressuring/embarrassing people when underdeveloped. These people can be actual bullies towards others when they’re at their worst.

Gemini rising’s/Mercury in the 1H look younger than they actually are.

Scorpio rising women are sometimes shorter than average while Scorpio rising men are taller than average.

8H moon’s can have dreams about scenarios that end up happening IRL.

Capricorn Rising’s usually have a skinny/bony appearance.

Whatever sign and house Saturn is in your chart can tell you what other people’s karma is for messing with you. Ex: Taurus Saturn in 7H? Taurus is a Venusian sign so it rules over beauty/appearance as well as luxury and money and the 7H signifies relationships, partnerships and marriage etc. Their karma may be their physical appearance looking uglier, plus going broke as well as their relationships/love life going downhill.

People with Scorpio in the 6H may prone to UTI’s/yeast infections or very heavy and painful monthly periods.

Cancer Rising’s may attract a lot of jealousy because of how intelligent they are (Gemini 12H)

Aries Rising men are usually buff and naturally muscular in appearance.

Aquarius in the 11H can attract multiple friend groups from all walks of life way more easily than the average person.

Pisces Moon/Venus are a lot more skilled in manifesting the things they want than they think they are.

Venus/Libra in the 12H can signify a lot more people than you think having a crush on you/being attracted to you. Your secret admirers just keep it to themselves because they assume you already know and don’t wanna boost your ego.

Leo, Libra, Scorpio and Capricorn rising women consistently attract men who neg them as a way of trying to get them to notice them.

Sagittarius placements (esp mercury) are blunt and rude in their speech but they don’t mean any harm by it, they just say whatever they’re thinking.

Virgo placements on the other hand are also blunt, but they over analyze every encounter and conversation they have so they usually know what’s rude to say and what’s not. So if a Virgo’s saying shady things towards you, they mean it.

Libra Venus’ can not remain in a relationship if there isn’t constant flirting. It’s also important not to let yourself go if you’re in a relationship with them because they are visual asf.

12H sun’s rarely get acknowledgment for the good they do but get a lot of attention for the mistakes they make.

12H suns can also be kind of gullible and naive growing up.

Mercury in the 2H usually don’t like to talk about things that aren’t factual or don’t benefit them in some way.

Mars in the 12H can be prone to high blood pressure due to internalizing their anger most of the time.

Venus in the 1H are very attractive, even if not conventionally handsome/pretty there’s something very aesthetically pleasing about their facial features and their overall vibe.

Venus in 1H can also do no wrong in the eyes of the public. Basically pretty privilege.

Same goes for Pisces Risings ⬆️ they usually get away with a lot due to their innocent demeanor.

Your moon sign is usually a prominent sign in your mother’s chart.

Saturn in the 8H might not lose their virginity until later in life, or at least not as soon as their peers.

Your rising sign can tell you what everyone was feeling or what was going on during the time of your birth.

Leo women have this tendency of leaving or cheating on men who are good to them for guys who are terrible people. (Not all Leo women of course, but I’ve seen soooo many Leo girls do this)

Pisces men are very, very confusing. The type of person to be married for years with kids and still try to keep up with what you got going on in your life.

Cancer in the 12H usually have issues with women/mother in their life.

Aries Venus prefer the chase more than the actual relationship.

Scorpio/8H placements have an inherent fear of their spouse/loved ones dying.

Pisces mars are freakier in bed than most people think.

Moon sextile Neptune manifest through their dreams a lot.

Sun in the 5H is someone who doesn’t take life too seriously and prefers fun over responsibility a lot of the time.

Mars in Scorpio are more revengeful and unforgiving than any other Scorpio placement honestly. These people can get revenge and still not be happy.

Mars in Sagittarius usually have lots of flings and hookups throughout their life.

TW!: Some underdeveloped Virgo men have a weird tendency to actually want to harm women mentally and emotionally. They’re not the type to just break up with a partner and move on, they usually want to make the breakup as fucked up as possible so the thought of them remains in the persons mind forever. I’ve met over 6 Virgo men who’s admitted to this before and the girl didn’t even do anything wrong in the relationship, they just didn’t wanna be with her anymore but didn’t want her to forget them.

Capricorn women usually have very long, flowing luscious hair.
