[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 440711, member: 1233"] Lisa, with as dirt cheap as many beta blockers are, why on earth is your husband not treating his blood pressure? And YOU, my dear, are a NURSE who is not treating her own HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE???? EXCUUUUUUUUSE ME, I am SURE I didn't read that one right. I know for a fact that you can get 3 mos of blood pressure medications for $10 per 3 mos - and that Wally World is making a FORTUNE in profit on betablockers at that price. They literally were $1.42 without insurance at the higher price local pharmacy here just three months ago. Cause that is what I paid for them. For husband, not me. Then his doctor got the idea that even though these were working fine he should change to a medication that was a combo of two medications. Now he gets both of those written separately and it will be $20 for 3 mos because the medications written separately are that price and together are about $40 per month. Sort of like taking plain generic sudafed and plain generic benadryl vs. the cost of even generic night time cold medication capsules. One is just way cheaper but they do the same thing. Untreated blood pressure is a HUGE health risk. There is NO reason to not treat this. Even if you must sit in the free clinic waiting room all day, it is too important to ignore. Do you WANT to just drop dead and leave husband to allow Katie and M to move into your home and run off your daughter's and grandbabies? Cause you KNOW she will try and your husband will let her "just for a little while". Please, even if you don't get husband to go get medications, PLEASE go and get medications to treat your own blood pressure. Please? [/QUOTE]
