Hi Chris,
you have to wonder about people being "diagnosed" with HBP. Who, I mean who, arrives at a doctor's office with a "resting" heart rate, (ha!) or ever approaches it while they're there, let alone a relatively calm feeling. 'tis the nature of the beast to be threat-inducing.

PS. on the discussion of blood vessels and vitamin C...
is the consensus that enlarged veins in the hands are a sign of lack of vitamin C?
Mine became noticeably larger about seven years ago. Looking 'flaccid', where they'd always been fairly slight. They seem to be narrowing on this fast, but is that just a passing thing, like the cells generally becoming temporarily more -- uh, can't think of the word....Too much thinking. :-)
