People with physical health issues, what do you think about making a group of us, to support each other? We could also make some representation to spread awareness about our illnesses! Just tell me where you'll be comfortable to chat! And also, there's no matter which diagnosis you have, because we'll represent every physical health issues!

Still tachy, little play recording heartbeat with portable ecg monitor and bp cuff and heartbeat...

8?

8 - have I ever been stethed by anyone.?

Not in a cardiophile kinda of way. Only really at the doctor, however when my friend was training to be a nurse every time he would hang the requirement was that he could practice taking our vitals. I spent the whole time trying to control my breathing and heart rate so it didn’t give me away but he explained what we were listening for when taking blood pressure and let me try. I got to listen to his heart and mine for the first (hhehehe not first) and played dumb with how to use the stethoscope.

Up until joining Tumblr about a month ago I was very shy about my cardiophilia but the acceptance and respect I’ve received has been awesome and it makes me feel like I can trust and be vulnerable with someone to be gentle and respectful of her in real life too some day.

Anyways I thought it would be fun to record my heart while answering this to make it interesting and see what she has to add … 😃

If you saw the first version where I didn't include a "I just did not do that" vote... no you didn't.

The hypertension drug rilmenidine has been shown to slow down aging in worms, an effect that in humans could hypothetically help us live longer and keep us healthier in our latter years. Previous research has shown rilmenidine mimics the effects of caloric restriction on a cellular level. Reducing available energy while maintaining nutrition within the body has been shown to extend lifespans in several animal models. Whether this translates to human biology, or is a potential risk to our health, is a topic of ongoing debate. Finding ways to achieve the same benefits without the costs of extreme calorie cutting could lead to new ways to improve health in old age. In a study published in January, young and old Caenorhabditis elegans worms treated with the drug – which is normally used to treat high blood pressure – lived longer and presented higher measures in a variety of health markers in the same way as restricting calories, as the scientists had hoped. "For the first time, we have been able to show in animals that rilmenidine can increase lifespan," said molecular biogerontologist João Pedro Magalhães, from the University of Birmingham in the UK.

Bacterial toxins can compromise blood vessels' leakiness affecting blood pressure. This study reveals that blood vessel lining cells' membranes, under the control of proteins called caveolin-1 and cavin1, stiffen to regulate the leakiness via tunnels called transendothelial cell macroapertures

Tachycardia episode, so i record my hearbeat and monitoring him longer time. Enjoy that Clip

Had my blood pressure taken today and the reading was so insane that it palpably frightened the healthcare provider

I didn't know how to tell them that I'd just ALMOST accidentally shown everyone in the room some fucking filthy Patreon drops from @meanbossart 😬

She took another reading at the end of the appointment and it was confirmed that I actually have the blood pressure of a sleeping saint when I'm not worried about outing myself as a rampaging pervert

Limiting yourself to one alcoholic drink a day may not be enough to avoid detrimental effects on your health, researchers report. The new study confirms for the first time that both low and high daily alcohol intake are continuously associated with increases in blood pressure levels, potentially increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease. The findings were the result of combined analysis of seven international research studies conducted between 1997 and 2021 in almost 20,000 adults in the US, Korea, and Japan in whom the association between usual intake of alcohol and blood pressure could be observed for periods of four to 12 years. None of the participants had been previously diagnosed with high blood pressure, cardiovascular diseases, or alcoholism. Participants who consumed an average of 12 grams of alcohol per day—roughly equivalent to 1.5 oz. of liquor or one 11 oz. beer—saw systolic blood pressure rise 1.25 mmHg. Consuming 48 grams per day saw a systolic blood pressure increase of 4.9 mmHg.
