This story has made me really angry.
I truly believe that people in offices cannot solve this as they just don’t see or understand the real life impact.
It is surely time for proper change
For people with high cardiovascular risk, the lower the blood pressure the better. The 1st randomized trial to target <120 vs <140 mmHg shows major outcome benefit for the former with minimal risk

My gorgeous wee mother is 73-years-old. Three years ago she needed a partial knee replacement after suffering bone on bone pain. The NHS/HSC waiting list at the time time was 5-7 years so we clubbed together and paid for private surgery. The other knee now needs partially replaced and she has been told the NHS waiting list is 6-9 years! Private surgery will happen later this summer and cost her £12,000+. These are the golden years of my mother’s life. She deserves to live them free from pain. What of all men and women in the same agony who can’t access the money to pay? People are being failed. What’s being done?🤷🏻♀️
Do we need a Personal Early Warning Service? So people can *quickly* get seen if they have subjective/observed signs that could be cancer - many people put off or experience delay in seeing a doctor for such questions. Get a quick answer & peace of mind or access to fast track.
This is why we need to carefully examine who is proposing what for our health service. The velocity with which inequality in access to diagnosis and treatment is emerging is frightening….
