High Blood Pressure

I have to say, the one thing about the new doctor, is he is on top of things. He doesn't wait around to make changes, which is a good thing.

Problem though, is it does become a worry, and I wonder at how much should a Doctor tell patients, & their families. I mean obviosly, if you tell just the facts, it can be scarier than if you explain them too.

Like saying that the ECG showed she had a heart attack, by itself, would have me in a cold sweat. It does anyhow, but by adding that it was in the past, not necessarily recent, and is common to see in people who are 92, well, the panic doesn't quite take hold.

It really is a juggling act, and I wonder, how they do it? The good one's anyhow, because the shit doctors, they don't even have enough common sense to order an ECG.
