I Have High Blood Pressure

Should note this: For the past couple years, whenever they take my vitals at the start of every doctor's visit, I have noticed when I got my measurements back at the end of every visit that my pressure readings, the diastolic/systolic ratio, has crept into borderline territory.  The 120/80 numbers I had enjoyed all my life are now higher than that.

I don't know what to make of it.  It's probably old age.  But I feel the stress whenever I obsess over something really bad.  Sometimes I get so lost in those violent thoughts that I catch my heart beating hard, or my chest hurting real bad.  And I think that might be contributing to the rise of my blood pressure.

Just something to note.
