• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

Blood pressure

Doesn't surprise me Roger 😉... Seems these AI critters will give different replies/answers to different people asking the same question (same terminology! ) depending on that person's location... and other things. *From a certain discussion taking place in another forum elsewhere* 😎 (possibly you've seen part of it? Question re climate change).

It was the term "with  mother" that made me do the search... which then presented the rest of the information leading up to how to take. If/when (?) I give it a try - having reduced/tapered off the Omeprazole further down the line - I can't see me taking ACV with mother long term... 2 weeks sounds about long enough 😜😂

Did you have bloods taken ? If so could be that and not your BP which is bloody good. Well within recommended levels
 
I was a bit cavalier and yesterday decided not to take the Omeprazole 20mg. Come the evening stomach didn't feel good so tool the tablet. Sorted. So definitely needs tapering at a timer rate. Might go and see the GP.

But after Friday ......Spitfire Time 😁

Ask your doctor to change the dosage of the tablet to 10mg - while you still have the 20mg ones. Then try a 10mg in the morning and a 10mg in the evening. That's how I went about it - 1 x20mg a day, in the morning, didn't work for me... whereas the 10mg twice day did. Now I'm doing 1 x10mg in the morning. Took a while to stop the evening one but recently been doing okay. I had to do something like taking the evening one every other evening. Then I only took the 2nd tablet if my gut/throat area was a bit uncomfortable

I only have one item on my Bucket List. To fly in a two-seater Spitfire. It was due to happen May 18 but I called it off as the cloud ceiling was too low as I wanted the pilot to do some aerobatics.

But it's this Friday ...at Goodwood.

I had a brainwave over the weekend though as I remembered that they were flying from Dunkeswell Airfield which is only 30 mins away from me. So I toddled along to see how things were done, ask loads of questions so that on Friday it will be plain-sailing.

That's BRILLIANT Roger - I'm envious but good for you 😊🥃. That's one of the (few) things on my bucket list. Fingers crossed for great weather for you.

Did you mean *Plane sailing* 😎😜😉
 
SWIMBO found another seemingly good BP smart watch today which may be as good, if not better than the Huawei D2 indicated earlier in the thread by AJB. It works well with iPhone and Android, isn't so bulky, can be worn on either wrist and is a lot less dosh - Rob

Rob, your money, your call but it has NOT been clinically validated to any known standard. They might claim it has but there is no evidence. On the other hand, the Huawei D2 has and has met it
  • The Watch D2 met the ISO validation criteria for blood pressure accuracy.
  • Mean measurement differences from the reference device were within the required limits.
  • The device satisfied both Criterion 1 and Criterion 2 of the international validation protocol.

No doubt these things will become commonplace. It's a great idea, but would make me feel a bit of a hypochondriac unless I had a really pressing medical need.

Edit: good point Rog.

Agreed Rog, but as indicated earlier today the D2 has it's minus points which are making me think twice about it...clunky, lack of full integration with iPhone etc which the one above circumvents. Difficult call though, as you rightly say - Rob
