You're not curious to compare your health to the rest of GAF?
I think that's worthy of its own thread.
I cheat whenever I go...
Hold my breath and slowly exhale. Works every time!
You're only cheating yourself good sir.
CHEATIN MAH INSURANCE!
OMG GO TO A DOCTOR!
120/80ish, heartrate's a little fast resting at 70-80, though I have a slight arrhythmia that tends to affect it.
Oh, I could tell a funny story from the hospital.
Most patients on the ICU have arterial catheters connected to a monitor to check the real time blood pressure. Once there was a severe ill patient going into cardiac arrest, the nurses and doctors started their routine of CPR and what not. After a couple of minutes they realise that they can't do much for him. The senior physician then said: "Hey, do you think you can beat my blood pressure?" and starts pressing again. So, this turns into a contest who can get the highest blood pressure on the patient with the CPR. All while the crying wife sits in the next room.
If you have high BP you're at a much higher risk for a stroke, and will eventually have one. If you're BP is fine, it doesn't matter, cheat as much as you want. (I'm not sure slowing down your pulse affects BP).

I got my blood pressure and heartrate checked in August/September and it was 78 and 119/76.
I was at the pharmacy this past weekend and used their blood pressure machine and it said my blood pressure was 143/56. Am I gonna die? Actually, I think the machine was just borked.
Automatic bp-machines mostly suck. The most accurate are the arterial catheters I mentioned, or a nurse who can use these:
You also have to pay attention if the cuff is appropriate for your arm. If your arm is too small, the bp is false and too high.
A lot of us probably don't have blood pressure instruments laying around.

I'm going to the doctor for the first time in a year and half tomorrow for a physical.
We'll see if my post-college life style has destroyed my body.
That can't possibly be after meds.My blood pressure averages around 180 - 210 / 90 - 120. I win.

Yay hypertension.
