I am a type 1 diabetic of 39 years, I am 42 and just had my blood pressure taken. It was 154 over 81. I have been getting swollen ankles more and more over the last 12 months. I drink regularly and gave up smoking 18 months ago. I was 52 kg when I stopped smoking and am now 65 kg. how dangerous is the level of my blood pressure?
Regards.
