Re: Poker & Blood Pressure


I never use to have high blood pressure until I started playing poker seriously.
I noticed I started to have heart palpatations and sometimes would feel dizzy
and almost pass out. I have high blood pressure and believe its from poker. I
have to take blood pressure medicine daily. I take medicine everyday for this
condition and feel much better nowadays. I suggest to you or anyone that thinks
they have high blood pressure to seek medical attention as soon as possible
because its a serious problem if not treated!

Is there a doctor in the house? I'd like to know if my blood pressure
actually rises when I play or do I just FEEL like my head is going to
explode and my eyeballs pop out of my head sometimes?

No, it doesn't matter if I'm winning or losing, playing well or poorly.

If this is a common trait that I can ignore please advise.
