over 140 mmHg and/or a distolic pressure consistantly over 90 mmHg.

Your distinction is specious.

Among professionals there is a clear distinction between those two
labels, you had that distinction pointed out to you, and you choose to
deny it. That is both ignorant and arrogant.

Among his other faults, mxsmanic is unable to see shades of grey and
everything to him is either black or white, as in his statement that
consumption of any alcohol is "impairing".

Your existence is specious.

Perhaps the thread was indenting too far to the right and he decided
he'd wagged his cranium enough in this branch of the thread.

So many branches.... must....enlarge...ego....to cover more ground...
since the ground is where I must stay...

Bull****.

Get a physical with a systolic of:

120, doctor says nothing.

125, doctor may say it needs to be watched.

130, doctor may perscribe medication, definitely will advise action.

140, most doctors will perscribe medication and advise action.

No, you are not "normal" with a systolic of 120 and "impaired" at 121.

No, there isn't. High blood pressure is just the everyday term for
hypertension. Pretending there is a distinction between them is not only
misleading but potentially hazardous.

If your blood pressure is high, you have hypertension. If you have
hypertension, your blood pressure is high.

Yes, if you are an ignorant twit, "high blood pressure" and "hypertension"
mean the same thing.

No, if you have a clue, "hypertension" is a specific subset of "high
blood pressure".

Pretending there is a distinction between them is not only
misleading but potentially hazardous.

Pontificating nonsense, "Dr. Mxsmanic".

Not true.

If your systolic is 135, you have high blood pressure, but not hypertension.

If your systolic is constantly above 140 you have hypertension.

Just because you don't know the difference doesn't mean the rest of
the world doesn't.

If you have
hypertension, your blood pressure is high.

Well, since "hypertension" is a specific subset of "high blood pressure",
at least that one is true.

By your convoluted logic, since all Honda Civics are cars, all cars
are Honda Civics.

Our error is using the language professionals or literate
nonprofessionals would understand. Mx is often entertaining, but
sometimes really disappointing., This was one of those times. He does
not have the stature of a Clinton (except in his own mind) to remind
us it all depends on what 'is' means
