Diastolic (lower) Blood Pressure

There are several articles on this subject; the latest school of thought is that too low a reading (below 60) is inviting a higher probability of heart disease; even amongst those with lower Systolic (upper) readings.

Figured it would be of some interest here. I'm gonna make that appointment wi the Quack to get checked out . . . .

Any thoughts, guys?
