blood pressure?
my systolic blood pressure is fine and has been coming down nicely over the last couple of months but my diastolic pressure is high (95 odd). at this rate they'll coverge in about 3 months time!
i'm 37, ride about 3500 miles/ year, don't drink much, eat hardly any low salt but probably too much saturated fat but have a pretty streesful job.
is there any thing that is likely to be causing this, and is it a problem?
any help much appreciated..

Stress wont help if your salt intake is low!
Have you been to the docs? I'm 33 and mine was 166/110 with a cholesterol @ 7 (should be 5 or less) and since actually starting exercising last September its at a mid 120's/mid-upper 70's whenever i test it plus at Xmas had my cholesterol re tested and that was 3.6.

I have an Omron MX2 basic, my docs use an Omron as well.
