My dad would say, how much did you spend? She'd say $100. He'd reply, then you didn't save anything at all, you still spent $100. I've never forgotten that. This is the same thing...different topic.

I run a blog that covers all manner of topics, mostly in women's health, but more recently in medication adverse events, mitochondria and other topics that interest me. We cover both research and patient stories as part of an integrated research platform. In any event, would love to have you write a post for us at some point. Here's a link to my page: http://www.hormonesmatter.com/author/chandler/ Take a look and let me know.

...So love this, and how you write it up so well... <br /> being one who can hardly ever get to the dizzy heights of the 120/ I get fed up with amazed docs taking my B/p. Ive watched more patients die of anxiety because they couldn't get under the 130/, or 140/ but had been leading a very healthy lifestyle and then get told by the white coat, that they needed more pills to get that %-life. <br />And how now they are suddenly going to have that stroke........ no they wont.<br />To me it belongs to the flat earth society statistics. <br />Muffinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12579983553530906218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519234397783312626.post-22655588043407388872015-09-16T22:13:32.227-04:002015-09-16T22:13:32.227-04:00And to you, Brad!And to you, Brad!Marya Zilberberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16080475886113209344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519234397783312626.post-15008719598495268252015-09-16T18:30:59.417-04:002015-09-16T18:30:59.417-04:00Shanah Tovah :)Shanah Tovah :)Brad Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10366408815395434941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519234397783312626.post-18399783075994611942015-09-16T16:24:26.365-04:002015-09-16T16:24:26.365-04:00Thanks, Brad F. for fodder for today's post!

I even think I might have seen this somewhere before, but forgot. But from Austin's search it looks like there is no better estimate than that at the moment. Are you aware of one? Thank you again!
