Going to see the Cardo Doc today. I'm only 36 but Type 2 with really high blood pressure. 240/148 I know I know that's way to high but I'm a guy and well I'm stupid. We all have vises in our life's. Mine is not taking of myself. Anyway enough pitty on my part. Thought I'd reach out for support and I've gotten good help from here in the past. Local Track has closed so I don't keep up on here until Oaklawn starts up. Thanks guys.

Dude, I don't know your status (married...kids...etc) but not taking care of yourself isn't a vice, it's stupidity. You should probably take this as a wake up call. Hopefully it isn't too late and you can get yourself better. Your a young guy, why waste what could be a long life ahead of you? Look at these shows of these obese people that can't get out of the house and end up losing all kinds of weight. So there's always hope, but you are the only on who could do it. I wish you well and hope you get better.
