Yes I used them 3 times although each time my bank card rejected the payment. I tried multiple banks cards and took the risk of bank transfer to get it to work

You can manage and bring down the HBP naturally. Just a change of life style. Are you in the banking industry? do you live in Lagos?

When i was around 35yrs old and working in Lagos my BP was always around 140/100 fast forward years later, and after quitting the stressful job, my BP is now around 125/80 and i am 42years old. I am sure being in Scotland alone will bring down your blood pressure. Naija itself na Pressure Pot.

Hello my people, please, I just got offer for master in 2 UK universities, one in England and the other in Scotland. My issue is that I have just been diagonised to have High blood pressure and currently being placed on drug. Though is like border line hypertension and have started doing all possible to ensure I manage the situation and if possible be off the drug before the resumption time in January, 2021 but I have been warned that I will still have to be taking the drug even if I'm able to put the BP under control. I understand NHS payment is for health management but I'm confused if the payment will cover prescription or not since I will still have to be taking this drug even in the UK. Also, I read somewhere that I don't need to pay for prescription in Scotland while it is mandatory in England. I don't know how far this is true or not. Please, I need your advise as regard this. Thank you.

You will not have to pay anything for your medicines in Scotland as medicines dispensed on a valid prescription are free over there. However, in England, you will be charged £9.15 PER ITEM. A prescription might have many items written on it, and you will have to multiply by £9.15 accordingly. The presence or absence of a prescription charge shouldn't be a factor in your decision to choose a university of study though.

If it is student Visa then they dont check or mandate what kind of accommodation.... so it possible to stay there but no privacy for the parents and it might feel tight but since the oldest is 3. It is possible to stay there and save some money
