I've got an appointment with my physician to talk about

SNIP

and my blood pressure is creeping up a bit
since I start
weight-lifting, moving from 115/65 to more like 135/75.
I'll mention
that, but isn't that normal when you are a regular
weight-lifter for
your blood pressure to go up?

What else would you ask to be tested for if you were
fit, forty and
feeling fine?

Hey Dally--I don't think it's normal for the blood
pressure to go up that much with WT--I lift four days a
week and my last "official" reading was 102/66, a
slight increase over my previous 100/64. But 137/75
sounds high--do you think the stack has anything to do
with it?

And good luck on your search for medical advice from
usenet--I followed the thread on MFW.
