Blood pressure: This is an elevated blood pressure, he should start life style changes including low salt diet ( avoid cold cuts), weight loss if he is overweight, and return to see his doctor to repeat the blood pressure measurement; however , if he knew his BP was already elevated, he may need to start medications if diet and excercise fails.
