Why would a healthy patient with normal labs have high blood pressure:

Did they Google 'high blood pressure' before the test?

Bad genes.

POLL: Who should be 2025 Preseason Big 12 favorites?

arizonacougarfan

4:49pm

I bet pre season polls are close with maybe ASU in front and BYU, KSU and ISU in some order

byuTX

4:51pm

ASU is losing Tyson and Skattebo.

BYU '80

5:01pm

Their rush D is good, but agreed—losing Scattebo and Tyson is huge

reddead

Tyson is coming back

arizonacougarfan

5:04pm

Scateboo gone hurts them for sure. Leavitt is a great QB and the press are kind of lazy.

And I failed to notice the OP was asking “should” so in that case BYU probably should be but there are arguments for

What makes you think ASU would be first without Skattebo?

I read OP as who “will be” not “should” so my bad. Having said that (lol), Leavitt is significantly better than JR and

byuTX

5:10pm

I think Leavitt and Retzlaff are the same, but the Baylor QB will be the best.

As people, runners or in grit? JR wins hands down. As passers? It’s not even close-Leavitt is hands down better. If JR

Questions regarding labs

If it were a closed system, then maybe. There are far too many variables to really worry about a lab value

KingDave

dehydration or kidney failure?

There are other labs that indicate kidney failure. If it's just

Did you start on a blood thinner like Eliquis?

Nope. I take nothing but B Vitamins.

Either way you should probably be on meds. My LDL was consistently in the mid 120's and was never that concerned since

Calcium is square in the normal range.

Your blood calcium levels do not matter. This is a scan to see if plaques are

Methusaleh22

Who in his early 50s chooses a name like Methusaleh? You should be in your 90s.

Archaea

To be honest I have no idea the origin of my name. It was one from my sordid CB

SinkingQuffa

Oh he is nowhere near where Keita is in terms of feel for the game.

kimdaddy35

4:39pm

Better shooter & a better ball handler by far. Yes, he doesn't have the D1

SinkingQuffa

4:46pm

He can't handle the ball at this level so I am not sure what you mean by better ball handler.

C’mon. This is absurd.

Cuz Keba's got more a skillset to be a 4 than Mboup?

Stop it.

Permanent Daylight Savings Time! Who's with me?

Cougar Junkie

4:30pm

That means permanently on Summer schedule? Not winter-- right? That would suck to be on winter hours year round.

PJMort

4:34pm

It means that whether it's summer or winter, it gets dark at a later hour.

Cougar Junkie

Getting dark at 8:30 vs 9:30 in Utah is great.
