There are many cases in which a scuba diver dies due to hypertension in the middle of a diving venture. In most actual cases, these poor divers were found to have suffered from acute pulmonary edema while smack in the middle of a dive. This is because hypertension and death are two aspects that are actually linked when it comes to diving. You see, acute pulmonary edema actually results in the death of the poor divers due to actual congestion of their lungs with fluid. With this, I think you should always undergo frequent check-ups on your blood pressure and your cardiovascular system before going out for that well-deserved scuba diving holiday.
