SPOKE TO MY PHARMACIST TODAY WHO SAID 140/80 WAS NORMAL UNTIL I REMINDED HER OF HER CLINACAL TRAINING.
SHE ADMITTED THE NICE GUIDLINES FOR GPS AND PHARMICISTS IS DO NOT TREAT PRE HYPOTENSION 145/80 AND BELOW .
wAIT UNTIL YOU ARE HYPOTENSIVE AND THEN TREAT THE PATIENT AS THERE IS NOT ENOUGH MONEY TO SPREAD AROUND TO TREAT TO 120/80
STAFF NURSE IN THE HOSPITAL TONIGHT COMMENTED THEY HAVE TO SET A LIMIT SOMEWHERE.
*edit*

NOT NEED BUT ABILITY OF GOVERNMENT TO PAY.
