[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dental hygienists are petty dictators. At my dentist's office, they take your BP after the cleaning and before the exam. The hygienist admonished me for having slightly elevated BP. I had to cut her off and explain that I was recovering from preeclampsia and was under the care of a cardiologist, who was competent to manage the condition.[/quote] Was she admonishing you or letting you know? Most people don’t know about their elevated bp until told. Also recommendations concerning elevated (vs “high”) bp have changed recently.[/quote] Admonishing. She told me it was high (it was something like 128/82, so just barely). I told her I was aware and was handling it with my physician, who felt those numbers were acceptable for me at the time. She insisted that those numbers were not acceptable and kept telling me that I needed to take the issue seriously. [/quote]
