welcome to the club. My numbers are higher. Told not to lift over 50 pounds and keep stress down. Tough in tody environment. I decided not to watch the news. Feel a lot better not watching. I biked 6-10 miles a day and do golf and gardening . Turned 79 lat week, have dropped a few pounds and feel good. Besides bad knees i have no other problems, so my next check up is summer. Will be interested to see the numbers.

@cobweb Do you mind sharing your measurement? I like the reco to stop watching the news. I am 70 and at 5.0 cm with no growth in 3 years. My surgeon is pushing me for surgery while I am healthy (low bp, no smoking, min drinking, good weight, etc). The cardiologists are leaning to avoiding surgery and monitoring every 6 months with MRIs as open heart surgery comes with risks. Thank you in advance.@eosow
