Oh yes John, I never had "high" blood pressure, but immediately after I quit smoking, my blood pressure went down 20 points on the top; it is amazing how negatively smoking affects every part of your body.

John & Sue,

Thanks everyone, this board rocks. Have been telling everyone about it!.
Another interesting factoid, since we quit smoking Sue's doctor approved her to STOP TAKING her high blood pressure medicine!
She just did a test now as I was typing this, with no high blood pressure meds for 2 weeks her result? 109 over 68! :)
Yep, we feel like we've made it, but will never let our guard down.
Thanks again for everyones suppport!

That's excellent John! It's always motivating to see numbers prove you are a healthier you. Don't forget all the aerobics and other hard work you have putting in too!!!

My Oxygen level a few minutes after smoking a cigarette last year was roughtly 87.
90 days smoke free my readings were between 94-96.
Seems I went from the low end to the high end. :)
