    I felt like I wasn't being taken serious by the older doctor because I've had to call the the ER twice because the medicine is not keeping my blood pressure down yet, I'm up to 3 pills a day and still having to take my [MEDICATION] to bring it down toward the end of the day, I'm just worried I'm not being taking serious with how bad my blood pressure is, it just seems like nothing will control my blood pressure. The doctors were very friendly.
