A doctor has provided 1 answer

BP not OK: Hi. No, that BP is too high, and increases risk of eye, kidney, and cardiovascular disease. It needs to be effectively treated. How is her diabetes control? It needs to be well controlled also. Likewise cholesterol/lipids. And I hope she doesn't smoke! Good luck to her!
