Note (General):
Picture caption: "Hypertension" means high blood pressure. Don't confuse hypertension with nervous tension--staying calm won't control high blood pressure. If your doctor has prescribed high blood pressure medication, take it daily--whether you feel upset or whether you feel terrific.
Note (General):
"High blood pressure--treat it for life."
