[QUOTE="emotionallybankrupt, post: 313451, member: 8226"] From a physiological response standpoint, you sound a lot like me. Has your blood pressure been checked lately? Those frequent "fight or flight" responses triggered me to have a continuing problem in that area. Even if you only have elevations during those times, a key is how often are you in that mode. I'd get a home monitor and check it out, because they aren't that expensive. It would be good info for your doctor to see what is happening there in your daily course of life, not just in his/her office. What I was ultimately told was that I was spending so much time in "fight or flight" mode that it was dangerous not to medicate the blood pressure. On the other hand, maybe the adrenaline rushes aren't doing that to you. I hope that is the case. [/QUOTE]
