I often wonder… is it an Rh negative thing or a blood type A thing?
Blood type A also makes more adrenaline in response to stress than the other blood types. Fortunately, blood type A also has the greatest ability to break down or eliminate catecholamine hormones like adrenaline.

What else do we seem to have in common…?
Here is another quick question for all Rh negatives:
What is your blood pressure rate usually?
What is your blood pressure rate when you are highly stressed and/or adrenalized?
Interesting as l’m A Neg. And l cope with stress and pain way higher than the average person can, according to my many past doctors, most of whom predicted early demise for me, and are now dead themselves, as are all the family l’ve outlived, leaving me the most senior member in the UK. They all went in their fifties and sixties. Heart attacks, strokes, are my families bag. I am in constant pain with rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis throughout my body, the first has been with me since age 22, the latter since age 40. Now 77, l’ve never used pain killers in my life, and l never will. I’ve seen too many people on them, and on anti-depressents who’ve succumbed to serious problems and died younger than they should. I cry in pain often, l use a heavy duty body hand massager to ease my pain. They call it Cervical Spondylosis nowadays, meaning Arthritis of the spine. It’s in my hips, feet, hands, shoulders too. “You’ll be in a wheelchair at fifty!” The diagnosing doctor said on RA, l’m not at 77, but l struggle to stand up every morning, every time l need a pee in the night, and l try to stay upright as long as l can. But heart failure (by product of RA) means l am exhausted, fall asleep often now, never used to, feel sick, feel giddy, and other symptoms. So it takes a day to do jobs that used to take a third of the time. I live alone, see no one except waving in passing, as l mow and trim my front. Stopping for breath every few minutes. I use aspirin, just one 75mg disposable tablet daily. When l get severe chest pain, l up the ante to three throughout the day. Despite them being low in strength, my immune deficiency condition means minimum is best! They cause bleeding if you overdo them. I have done this since 1995 when the doctor told me l’d be dead inside six weeks if l didn’t change my life. I know Aspirin has kept me alive all the intervening years since that six year prognosis in 1995. My BP has been above the ceiling ever since, and my life time is filled with immune deficiency condition and allergic reactions to all meds. And eventually, to antibiotics of the Cillin type, which kept me alive throughout a childhood mostly spent in hospitals. And serious injuries from accidents, and violence. So l stay indoors since 2017, and can no longer walk my daily four miles. Because my breathing will not let me. I’m not on meds, or treatments, l see no doctors now. I know my time is limited. And just as God afforded me paranormal gifts of knowing when others die, l know my time is close. I’ve been blessed with the ability to cope, or as my doctor put it, many moons ago, “you have a very high pain threshold!” I’m typing after two hours of electric spinal massage, gentle walking with my stick throughout my hall, living room, kitchen, and bathroom, and now, finally, l think l can climb into my shower! Brought in by finally getting all my front garden mowed yesterday. Four hours, on my once hourly chore. Not bad with my conditions. No edit, need to walk about, apol’s repeats and typos.
I do have notice a very strong reaction to adrenaline. So, I need to take melatonin or I will stay up way too long.
