I would love to raise your BP for you but, I can't think of anything to get your dander up. I think we have gone through all the good ones anyway. So sorry, you will have to find your own cure. Have you tried Viagra? Hehehehe.
When you are on the other side of the 120/70 benchmark you need pills for the BP, then pills for the water, then pills for the Potassium. I think they plan it that way. A conspiracy amongst the drug sellers. BTW, some drugs can be fun.

Bernie, calm down. I too have normally low BP 106 / 65 but now because of the newet DX I've got to raise it up to 160 / 95 if at all possiable.. For some reason with MSA your low BP is a very bad thing. As far as ever playing golf again, "HOPE DOES SPRING ETERNAL" if I'm still around in 2006 I'm going to "TRY" and play because my hole(s) in one were in 1976 / 1986 / 1996, so it stands to reason in 2006 I'm going to make another one. Hey Bernie, "KEEP THE FAITH"
