Sorry to hear that. You think it's entirely fitness level? Or are there stress / genetic issues that might also be causing it?
I'm pretty lucky my blood pressure, cholesterol and all that other crap are perfect. Actually last time I went my Dr. was kind of confused about my weight and not having issues with blood pressure. My cholesterol was actually below normal, which was hard to believe with the red meat in my diet etc.
