Burmawright, Hypertension is systemic and is taken with a blood pressure cuff or wrist cuff. PH is related directly to the arteries in the lungs and the right side of the heart. This is usually detected during a heart sonogram, but the definitive way is a Right Heart Cath. You can Google PAH or Pulmonary Hypertension or look at the info under Resources on this sight. My numbers are very high too. At one point, it was 79. It is still too high, but I'm still alive and kicking. I'm no Rockette, but I still try to do what I can. Hope this helps.
