Try measuring your bp with "cuff" before and after drinking water when
you encounter this thirst.

How long to wait after? I don't know. Experiment.

I assume that a number of these measurements would give you the
answer.

If you do this experiment, please let us know

hello marshall,

does it follow then, that if you are thirsty, or perhaps dehydrated in a
more general basis, that you could expext blood pressure to be higher?

i am searching for all knowledge i can find about causes of hbp, and yes i
am googling on it all the time for new info....

i wonder if anyone knows of a list that has the expertise of this one, that
may be dedicated to it?
