I bet most of you didn't know this:
Arteriosclerosis is a general term describing any hardening (and loss of elasticity) of medium or large arteries (from the Greek Arterio, meaning artery, and sclerosis, meaning hardening.) It should not be confused with "arteriolosclerosis" or "atherosclerosis" which is any hardening (and loss of elasticity) of small arteries and arterioles (small arteries). This is often associated with hypertension.
This gentle fellow is getting a free hypertension scanning here today. The good news is that his readings are excellent: 120/70. Excellent!
