The good news is that the blood pressure has responded to the medication and is now steady at just over normal, but I'm still off work until the abnormal ECG readings have been explained.

Of course, I still need to lose weight, drink less and exercise more!
I like your Optimism, Bilbo! Although I don't have any abnormalities in my blood tests, my family has a history of heart problems which could also be a factor for me having them, so I'm with you on the losing weight, drinking less (beer, yes, but more water!) and exercising more!

The exercise part will be the ultimate challenge. Although mainly I think it would be the diet that would be my main struggle.
