One of the most important things you should stop doing after 60 is not scheduling blood pressure readings. This is a very dangerous practice that can put your health at risk. Your doctor can monitor and manage your health better this way, which can therefore help identify any potential health issues early on. As you can imagine, this is very beneficial in case you need any treatment or intervention.

According to doctors, regularly going to the specialists to measure your blood pressure, along with following their medical advice, is going to benefit your well-being and cardiovascular health.

  1. Well, you can obtain a heart/pressure monitor you place on your finger and monitor it yourself. Then you have peace of mind between doctor check ups

    1. Hi Carolyn, True what you said about the Blood pressure monitor, It is important and helps me to decide if I need a blood pressure pill or not. I have one here at home. I feel safer that way, especially because I have arteriosclerosis. Thank you for your tip.
