Blood pressure?

I just found out last night that my blood pressure is up and it shouldn't be.  I am down to 175 lbs and my blood sugar was down to 97 this week so I was shocked to find out that my blood pressure was high.  I went to the drugstore to double check the reading because it isn't unusual for my home tester to have a high reading, and there is a testing chair there that is more accurate.  I talked to the pharmacist who said that weightlifting can raise your blood pressure and I have been doing some intensive lifting in recent weeks.  I have done this to get healthier but apparently it might be a mistake.  No more max lifts for now.  I will make a change immediately and see if my blood pressure goes back down.  I will share in a future blog what I learn, so stay tuned.  I am going to be vacationing next week so this will be a great time to relax and get my pressure down.
