Had a car accident. No serious injuries. Well, to the people.Still waiting on car's dx. When ambulance arrived for us, the one of us who had been driving was very upset. His blood pressure was over 200 so EMT insisted we go to hospital. Wanted to say: let me get one of the others & it will be lower! But that's exactly what we did in the 5 minute ride to the hospital.Dropped it to 140. Still high, but acceptable after an accident. Now I'm wondering if that was a good idea. How will we know when there is a problem that needs attention? Doc recently started a lecture on getting the flu shot, stopped & commented that the 3 years we have been with her we hadn't been sick, so no lecture or flu shot. Any thoughts?
