Are they taking a blood test to see if you have hypertension? That is a new one to me. To take blood pressure they use an arm cuff. They may test your blood if you do in fact have high blood pressure to see if you also have high cholestrol, etc, which may be the cause of your high BP. As far as testing for THC, if it's a standard doctor ordered blood test, they do not test for drugs. Your doctor can't tell anyone if you told him/her you smoked 2 ounces a day. That falls under that Patient Protection thing or whatver act it is called. Drug tests cost money, too. Normally not cheap, and your doc is not going to order one when he really has no need to.

On the flip side, if you do have high BP, and the doctor asks if you drink, smoke, use drugs, etc, you should be honest. There may be certain medications he may want to avoid if you are burning 2 joints a day or whatever.

Be sure you treat now. Beats the shit outa sitting around for the next 20 years half paralyzed because you had a stroke due to the hypertension. It's very simple to treat. One pill a day, excercise more, and dont eat 40 chicken wings a night:rasta:



best of luck,
