Ok guys. I thought I'd update you all and thank you again for your posts. My doctor said that I need to keep hydrated. Heart function is normal on the echo, ECG is normal as well. My bp is now at 114/62 at rest and heart rate is 74 if I recall correctly. I have a return appointment with my cardiologist in a few weeks, just to be sure.

glad you're fine.
I usually run just over 100/50 myself, sometimes less sometimes more.
of course, I have renal failure so my BP isn't regulated by my kidneys like it should.
Right after failure I ran 210/105 which is in stroke-ville. No meds helped it but in the space of a week it started falling to where it is now.
