In having Lupus myself, stress might kill people at a fast pace which has been proven by the medical profession…. Yet, for those with lupus it is more like being struck by lightning . For us it means massive flare’s of joint pain that are so severe you can’t move or function, swelling and being stiff, more like the tin man on Wizard of Oz. Dryness of the eyes which rubbing them sucks a$$ which for me I’ve been told one more scratch in my eyes and I’ll go blind. The constant fatigue and tiredness along with chest pain, headaches and memory loss, and let’s not forget not being able to withstand the sun which causes an allergic like reaction with all of this it doesn’t compare to a regular person with stress… what we deal with kills us. I’ve had one organ shutdown, and I am constantly being checked and poked because of the possibility of a stroke… so yes stress kills faster but for us with lupus and not regular people without it…. Just saying.
@@overacheiver74 sending you love my fellow loopie 💜💜 I kinda screamed when I read “tin man” because that is exactly how I try to explain it to people that are trying to understand lol.
@@boobooooooooo when I got diagnosed and had my first appointment with my my specialist he asked what were my symptoms etc … I couldn’t explain it at all but Recently to that day I had watched the the Wizard of Oz movie that the easiest way to explain where people get it.
My brother actually died from complications with lupus at 15, he was only diagnosed about two months prior to that, and he was a normal healthy fit teenager, it was extremely aggressive.
And the fact he's a boy. It really had to be an aggressive form, it's uncommon for men/boys to have symptoms and be affected. I'm sorry that poor baby. I started getting psoriasis at 13 during a divorce, and now at 27 I was diagnosed early, still. We shouldn't be showing signs until mid 30s.
@@taymelee3283 yes boys having it especially that aggressively is extremely uncommon. Idk about the age thing tho. I was diagnosed at 14 and have been very sick ever since. That's the crazy thing about lupus tho. It presents so differently in everyone
@@charchar2511 it does present different because there are different forms, but it is uncommon for men to show traits. They are usually recessive carriers, it affects women and has a higher percentage to affect women more. My rheumatologist is a man that has Lupus. And while my grandmother had an aggressive form with RA, that she was on mild chemo for killed her, my mom has PSA and mild lupus. I happened to get and have a trifecta of PsA, RA, and lupus. Trying to figure out which one, just the skin one, the immune one, or the organ attacking one... Ps you have to get in remission early and stay in remission... I was told they wanted a positive ANA for years, over 14 rhemutoid factor, i was at 13, and 40% of the silver scales on my body before they started anything. I switched providers and now I'm getting control of the flares somewhat. The RH I have now, I swear was sent to me by my daughter. I hurt so much carrying her and she left us early. We don't know yet if it was lupus nephritis.
They don't care... and besides the stress I'm sure she is feeling has made all that other nonsense obsolete. We start stressing about how long of viability of life do we have left. What do we do next, what food goes into our bodies and every small ingredient that can cause a flare.
I was diagnosed with lupus at 15 yrs old and started having strokes at 22yrs. Before I turned 23yrs old, I had a major stroke that left me in a coma (very for people with lupus common) I’m now paralyzed because my brain and spinal cord was deprived of oxygen for too long (very uncommon but very possible)
My mom has lupus and this really is so accurate, I really appreciate that she shares things like this about her disease, anything to help with any kind of stigma is lovely.
Being chronically ill is exhausting and this beautiful talented young woman is doing all that and concerts. Please please be kind to everyone! We don’t look ill but are very ill. Just be kind!!
There's no lupus shes a recovering dope fiend. The end. Its like Yolanda Hadid crying she had Lyme disease when a Cali based dr got busted lying to all his patients just to get money from them. Selena is saying she has lupus bc a) she either got scammed by a doc who told her so or b) she's lying for sympathy bc there's literally footage she was doing heroin with Justin
Went to the dentist to get a tooth pulled, and had said that I hadn't been feeling well (not covid). They ask all these medical questions, then took my BP three tines, and each time it went higher. They didn't do work, send me to the walk in clinic, and I got BP meds for the first time. Had gone to the Dr three times before with high BP and they wouldn't give me anything at walking clinic, said I had to go to my primary care physician. So glad I went to the dentist, even though they didn't work on my teeth, I finally got on meds. To me, it was the most bizarre this to NOT get any meds when your BP is 180/90. Anyway, now I'm good.
180/90 is wayyyyy too high especially if you’re young, you could have a stroke. I send patients to ER if they’re BP goes over 170 and we’re talking about elderly ppl whose normal BP is around 150. Did you ever find out what’s causing it?
Holy shit! Usually when a patient is in pain there's always one indicative where pain can be "seen" BP is one of them. People in pain will have high BP the standard according to books is 120/60 for men 120/65 for women. Being 180/90 could mean that you were in distress that being anxiety or pain but if after a while your BP kept increasing and not decreasing you definitely needed to go to the ER bc you where running a high risk for a stroke. I am text book when it comes to BP 120/60 the last time I actually had to go to the ER bc I had COVID and I have asthma and I couldn't breath and my inhaler wasn't working my BP was 189/90. They admitted me immediately and gave me meds to lower my BP and give me steroids to open up my lungs. Hopefully i eventually went down with the BP to where they released me but boy I was scared shitless bc I was going to deal with stroke on top of everything else going for me. But I was good. I even told my roommate if I die tell them I have DNR cuz I don't wanna be here no more. 😂😂
Last year my BP got up to 200/110. I was at a fertility clinic and VERY stressed, and on Prednisone. I'm not sure why they didn't send me to the ER. I only made it halfway home and someone had to come get me because I HAD to lay down to keep the BP down. I definitely should have gone to the ER
I have 3 autoimmune diseases. The stress is the worst thing. It ramps my BP. I have to go relax if I get to tense or worked up because the stress causes my diseases to get more "active." In a way, I'm stable but I can't do things. My brain doesn't work correctly, and I don't know exactly how to fully explain how disordered my thoughts are compared to how structured I used to think before I ever got sick. I literally have ADHD that occurred in the past 5-10 years which screwed up my OCD. But I'm 42 years old. Imagine structured thinking falling to pieces and being unable to focus. It's hell not being able to say the words I'm thinking about...like they got lost in my brain on the way to my mouth. Also a need to finish a conversation/explanation/etc if I start.
My BP got up to something LIKE 143/112 one day while I was at the hospital and they left me with a constant monitor until I left. I'm on BP meds now, it's scary to realize that I was walking around like that. I even got an at home one and was in the 2nd stage high pressure a good bit. Last few visits with the doc, it's been LIKE 120ISH/80ISH, thank the Lord.
I have lupus & can confirm, meds especially can really mess with your BP. A few years ago I was diagnosed with Polymyositis as well & now I'm taking beta blockers to control anxiety & BP
I was diagnosed with lupus last year. I'm 31. It's killed me knowing I was brushed off and ignored my entire life and now I'm sick for life. Started HCQ recently... I hope someday I can be as brave and happy as Sel ❤
The blood pressure cuff was upside-down, and the tubing was on the outer portion of her arm. Both issues will give you an incorrect reading. The tubing should be pointed down, and on the inner side of her arm, if you look at the cuff, there's a diagram to follow for accurate readings. Normal blood pressure is 100-120/60-80 for older teenagers and adults. This, of course, varies by your bodies' "normal," the time of day, your pain level , and the amount of sleep or stimulants you've had, but it should fall into these ranges for a healthy BP.
Pero tú ignora a los que te hagan sentir mal, céntrate en estar bien, preocupado por tu salud y por tener paz contigo y los demás, eso ayuda mucho..Dios te bendiga
I have high BP. They thought I had lupus because I kept having positive ANA screenings. Then they discovered I had papillary thyroid cancer. I had a total thyroidectomy but my BP is still really high. Negative aNA screening after the few throwing so I don't have lupus but they don't know why my BP is so high. I take medication now to keep it under control.
This BP would be god sent for someone with lupus!!🙏 mine on a “good day” is about 150/90… lupus is such a serious disease that seems so often NOT talked about..💜
My blood pressure was in the 200’s over 100’s . My doctors were shocked that I hadn’t had a stroke yet. Seriously dangerous and I’m not only 26 years old . At the time, 24 . But I’m on medication now that has helped it stay relatively normal . Nothing to mess about with . It serous .
*For anyone wanting the actual simple answer to the question: the top number should be under 120 & bottom number under 80. If either of your numbers are higher then you have high blood pressure.*
Take care of yourself. My uncle is heading into his late 70s and his lupus has had bouts but is under control. He is a zero stresser person. Spends most of his time in his house doing things he likes.
I'm so proud of her taking her illness so seriously I've been a fan for a long time I'm so glad people have her back the stress isn't good for her I have high blood pressure which is controlled by medication so I know how important is which is a good reason why when things get too rough she leaves social media that brings me to the fact that Haley is copying everything she does I truly believe she's trying to break Selena I truly believe Haley thinks she can take her life if she's not here team Selena all the way #, team Selena
Nurse here friends. If you hold your arm up above your heart like that it won't be an accurate read, it will be falsely low. You need to rest it by your side. And also we don't really get concerned for a potential stroke until the top number hits 170's-180's
SHE OS CLEARLY BEING HATED JUST FOR BEING ALIVE AND BREATHING EVERY HOUR 😒 I love Selena always. ❤❤❤ Being a fan after reading so much about her since january 2023
So interesting how different lupus can manifest. I have SLE as well and my blood pressure always borders on low, sometimes to a detrimental level where I risk fainting, and they think that might be because of my lupus. Goes to show with conditions like lupus even if you know someone with it doesn't mean you know whats happening with someone you don't know with the same condition.
Does it bother anyone that she measures the pressure incorrectly? This is a show of pure water. I don’t deny that it’s hard for her, but why shoot such nonsense in public?
I’m low my average is 90/50 I used to think I would live longer because I run low but running low can be a problem as I have found. I’m glad she has people around her to keep a eye on her and I’m sending loving healing energy to her ❤❤❤
I mean just a little psa, 150/100 does NOT make you stroke out an die. It's hypertension. High blood pressure. So so many people have hypertension. It increases your RISK of stroke, yes, which is why you treat it. But that's talking about long term risk. The score people usually use is your 10 year risk. And people regularly get first diagnosed with hypertension at 160/100 and more after having been at that for years. She's definitely right that it puts her at risk but some people here seem to think what she means is "we need to keep this close by because if I ever go to 150/100 I could get a stroke at any second" and that's not really how that works.
Lupus isn't fun for sure to deal with. My grandma had, my mom has both types and so far thankfully I haven't been diagnosed with it. I'm really glad that Salena has the best care.
Selena is THE STRONGEST BADASS woman. This shows she's not just a celebrity, she's a normal real person with real normal problems. It's amazing how she is so transparent and genuine. I personally admire her strength with so many facets of her life. She is a beacon of hope.❤
I have Lupus and have struggled with my blood pressure for years. I actually had to educate a doctor once who didn't understand why my blood pressure was so high during an ER visit. I was seeking emergency care during an especially bad flare and couldn't get in with my PCP and my Rheumatologist can take months to see and she made several very rude assumptions about why my blood pressure was high or why I was "complaining" of certain very real symptoms. If you suffer from Lupus you already know you have to be your own advocate. Most of these doctors are completely clueless about autoimmune diseases. I've been on medication for my blood pressure for 3 years now and I'm 5'7 121 pounds and don't drink or smoke. Clearly I didn't choose for an autoimmune disease to ravage my cardiovascular system. The amount of medical gaslighting you have to endure before you even get your diagnosis is unreal when you have an autoimmune disease. And should you live a fairly normal life despite everything you are dealing with there will always be countless people questioning if you are actually sick. It's insane.
Systolic pressure is the top number (pressure exerted in the heart muscle) Diastolic pressure is the lower number ( pressure in the arteries) I’m glad she is taking care of herself and educating others around her! Such a smart girl! ❤
I know how you feel Selena my bp was always 200 to 2 something over 100 to 1 something I was at risk for another stroke for months it took 3 medications to get it under control the best I have is 126 over 84 which is a lot better than what it was I deal with so many other things like 2 forms of epilepsy we are strong and GOD has our backs much love to you Selena ❤
Yep, was diagnosed with lupus the highest I’ve ever had was 204/105 it was very scary and I’m lucky I was admitted to a hospital at the time it happened so they were able to help immediately and I’m safe but most people don’t realize what lupus causes me to go through every day.
So happy for you.. You look absolutely stunning.. It’s truly impressive how you remind me of an Earth Angel.. I am positive that at times it is quite difficult to be authentic concerning your health issues.. Your dedication to your career path is amazing and I love 💕 your determination .. It is a lot of hard work and you make it appear to be effortless.. I know better just how hard all of it truly is.. I’m sending you prayers and best wishes for your continued success and happiness.. Have an amazing and wonderful day.. Don’t forget to take time for rest & relaxation..Thank you ❤ for all that you do & most especially for all that you share with your adoring fans.. sending hugs & 😘
I have had a stroke and TIAs due to extremely hard to control high blood pressure from several chronic illnesses, including asthma and fibromyalgia. I'm 44. I feel horrible for Selena. She's way younger than me dealing with all this, plus silly drama.
The diastolic being 100 wouldn't mean she's close to a stroke. 100 is the starting point of bad. Hi also someone with SLE(Lupus) and have to do this several times a day also. Concerning for a stroke would be more like 115/120 and up. The highest mine has ever been was 255/162 and I had to be admitted. Strokes are very scary and a very real thing with lupus thankfully I've only ever had one so far. Idk how Selena still does all the stuff she does. She's pretty amazing.
I work in medicine and 140/100 is definitely high blood pressure, but it’s not stroke level. Selena seemed a bit dramatic here. I’ve had to send patients to the hospital because their blood pressure was reading at 200/130. That is stroke level
Wow! That's a scary high blood pressure. 150/100 as she says is actually what I usually have at the hospital because of "white coat syndrome" . While at home I only have slightly elevated or normal. They're definitely being a bit dramatic over a blood pressure cuff, but maybe thats how healthy people are :p
Is it just me or did anyone notice she put the cuff on wrong ?? I was always taught to put the pipe part level with the inside of your elbow gives a more accurate reading ??
I feel sad for her. My daughter has an auto immune disease. She had a transplant at 18 but it rejected after three years and she’s on dialysis again. Her blood pressure is very very hard to stabilize. It goes from 175/110 to 70/40 within hours. A lot of medication and a lot of monitoring.
I have Lupus too. After having my 3rd son, I went to my 6week check, and my BP was 200/100... nearly stroked, thank God I was right across from the hospital. It happened 3 more times before I could get it under control! SLE Lupus is so rough! People who don't have it just can't understand! I constantly have pain in my neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, and hands!! It has attacked my kidneys, heart, and liver without warning! 😢 I can not begin to imagine how she does everything she does! Selena is amazing!! ❤
Never seen anyone have a stroke at 150's/100 shoot thats my average patients BP lol Thats my BP right now. But I get the sentiment if it stays like that uncontrolled for years can lead to stoke or MI
I've been struggling with dangerously high blood pressure, 200/110. Ive been off work for about 2 months now trying to find a med that works and doesn't make me super sick due to side effects 🙈 Sending everyone good karma and hope you all have a wonderful day ☺️💕🇨🇦🤙
I don’t have lupus, but I naturally have low blood pressure as well. 125+ bottom number is high for me. My bottom number would get unusually high during pregnancy too. No idea what causes it, but it’s been that way my whole life. My core body temp runs a little low too. Usually 96-98.
With or without lupus

*For anyone wanting the actual simple answer to the question: the top number should be under 120 & bottom number under 80. If either of your numbers are higher then you have high blood pressure.*
.... It can be too low also.
Take care of yourself. My uncle is heading into his late 70s and his lupus has had bouts but is under control. He is a zero stresser person. Spends most of his time in his house doing things he likes.
I've had lupus for over 10 years, the 1st few years after my diagnosis were a struggle mentally and emotionally. Its not a joke at all man 🙏🏾
I'm so proud of her taking her illness so seriously I've been a fan for a long time I'm so glad people have her back the stress isn't good for her I have high blood pressure which is controlled by medication so I know how important is which is a good reason why when things get too rough she leaves social media that brings me to the fact that Haley is copying everything she does I truly believe she's trying to break Selena I truly believe Haley thinks she can take her life if she's not here team Selena all the way #, team Selena
This is very beautiful I'm very happy and proud of you and Brooklyn both god bless Justin 🙏🏾💙
My elder sister sufferred lupus for 13 yrs, started at age 20. A talented & kind woman she was.
Nurse here friends. If you hold your arm up above your heart like that it won't be an accurate read, it will be falsely low. You need to rest it by your side. And also we don't really get concerned for a potential stroke until the top number hits 170's-180's
This is exactly one of the many reasons she's lovely. She knows how precious overall heath is. ❤ Don't take life for granted.
SHE OS CLEARLY BEING HATED JUST FOR BEING ALIVE AND BREATHING EVERY HOUR 😒 I love Selena always. ❤❤❤ Being a fan after reading so much about her since january 2023
She Doesn’t deserve this she has such a beautiful soul
This Beauty!!!! 😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤❤
I admire her she is so smart
Wow she still looks like a little girl! Baby face! So cute!
Class Act all the way. I love her speaking voice which I heard finally in only murders in the building.
So interesting how different lupus can manifest. I have SLE as well and my blood pressure always borders on low, sometimes to a detrimental level where I risk fainting, and they think that might be because of my lupus. Goes to show with conditions like lupus even if you know someone with it doesn't mean you know whats happening with someone you don't know with the same condition.
Does it bother anyone that she measures the pressure incorrectly? This is a show of pure water. I don’t deny that it’s hard for her, but why shoot such nonsense in public?
Bendiciones
My cousin had lupus. She unfortunately passed from it when we were kids. She was my best friend.
I’m low my average is 90/50
I used to think I would live longer because I run low but running low can be a problem as I have found.
I’m glad she has people around her to keep a eye on her and I’m sending loving healing energy to her ❤❤❤
I mean just a little psa, 150/100 does NOT make you stroke out an die. It's hypertension. High blood pressure. So so many people have hypertension. It increases your RISK of stroke, yes, which is why you treat it. But that's talking about long term risk. The score people usually use is your 10 year risk. And people regularly get first diagnosed with hypertension at 160/100 and more after having been at that for years. She's definitely right that it puts her at risk but some people here seem to think what she means is "we need to keep this close by because if I ever go to 150/100 I could get a stroke at any second" and that's not really how that works.
Not over the sleeve!
Lupus isn't fun for sure to deal with. My grandma had, my mom has both types and so far thankfully I haven't been diagnosed with it. I'm really glad that Salena has the best care.
GOD bless you you Will be alright Don"t loose your faith
Selena is THE STRONGEST BADASS woman. This shows she's not just a celebrity, she's a normal real person with real normal problems. It's amazing how she is so transparent and genuine. I personally admire her strength with so many facets of her life. She is a beacon of hope.❤
I have lupus too. I can ABSOLUTELY relate
I have Lupus and have struggled with my blood pressure for years. I actually had to educate a doctor once who didn't understand why my blood pressure was so high during an ER visit. I was seeking emergency care during an especially bad flare and couldn't get in with my PCP and my Rheumatologist can take months to see and she made several very rude assumptions about why my blood pressure was high or why I was "complaining" of certain very real symptoms. If you suffer from Lupus you already know you have to be your own advocate. Most of these doctors are completely clueless about autoimmune diseases. I've been on medication for my blood pressure for 3 years now and I'm 5'7 121 pounds and don't drink or smoke. Clearly I didn't choose for an autoimmune disease to ravage my cardiovascular system. The amount of medical gaslighting you have to endure before you even get your diagnosis is unreal when you have an autoimmune disease. And should you live a fairly normal life despite everything you are dealing with there will always be countless people questioning if you are actually sick. It's insane.
Systolic pressure is the top number (pressure exerted in the heart muscle)
Diastolic pressure is the lower number ( pressure in the arteries)
I’m glad she is taking care of herself and educating others around her! Such a smart girl! ❤
God bless you Mamma we love you Alex Skye n Tasha
I know how you feel Selena my bp was always 200 to 2 something over 100 to 1 something I was at risk for another stroke for months it took 3 medications to get it under control the best I have is 126 over 84 which is a lot better than what it was I deal with so many other things like 2 forms of epilepsy we are strong and GOD has our backs much love to you Selena ❤
😊🎉 Wow She is Even more Amazing 👏
Idk how she deals. Stress flares me like a MF 🥺
she should get one of those blood pressure monitoring watch it'll be helpful to just warn her all the time and then use the big one to confirm
150/148 wow 😢😢😢 that's why your kidney was damaged, damn lupus, God bless you Selena🫀
Yep I remember one time I was 163 over 98 that was an interesting time The joys of lupus
I can relate to this thank God my blood pressure is good I hope my lupus never acts up
Selena, I'm 48 deal with SLE daily, and my blood pressure exactly how you explained but lady we got this!!
The cuff was upside down 🤭
You're a classy woman with love ❤️ in your heart to share!
People, if you cannot be NICE, do NOT post anything.
Wow her profile is so pretty
I didn’t even know that she had lupus, kudos to her for handling it with such grace and maturity.
So beautiful 🙏💗🙇🏽♂️💝🕊️🕊️
The b/p cuff was upside down 😮
Yep, was diagnosed with lupus the highest I’ve ever had was 204/105 it was very scary and I’m lucky I was admitted to a hospital at the time it happened so they were able to help immediately and I’m safe but most people don’t realize what lupus causes me to go through every day.
So happy for you.. You look absolutely stunning.. It’s truly impressive how you remind me of an Earth Angel.. I am positive that at times it is quite difficult to be authentic concerning your health issues.. Your dedication to your career path is amazing and I love 💕 your determination ..

Have an amazing and wonderful day.. Don’t forget to take time for rest & relaxation..Thank you ❤ for all that you do & most especially for all that you share with your adoring fans.. sending hugs & 😘
I have had a stroke and TIAs due to extremely hard to control high blood pressure from several chronic illnesses, including asthma and fibromyalgia. I'm 44. I feel horrible for Selena. She's way younger than me dealing with all this, plus silly drama.
My cousin had Lupus since she was young and passed away with Lupus this Monday. She was so young it’s sad and scary.
U re best
Any body dat loses u losed a large amount of love and strength
The diastolic being 100 wouldn't mean she's close to a stroke. 100 is the starting point of bad. Hi also someone with SLE(Lupus) and have to do this several times a day also. Concerning for a stroke would be more like 115/120 and up. The highest mine has ever been was 255/162 and I had to be admitted. Strokes are very scary and a very real thing with lupus thankfully I've only ever had one so far. Idk how Selena still does all the stuff she does. She's pretty amazing.
I work in medicine and 140/100 is definitely high blood pressure, but it’s not stroke level. Selena seemed a bit dramatic here. I’ve had to send patients to the hospital because their blood pressure was reading at 200/130. That is stroke level
Wow! That's a scary high blood pressure. 150/100 as she says is actually what I usually have at the hospital because of "white coat syndrome" . While at home I only have slightly elevated or normal.
They're definitely being a bit dramatic over a blood pressure cuff, but maybe thats how healthy people are :p
Glory to God.
The cuff is upside down.
I have lupus and it's sucks.
I feel lucky that she has the grace to show it to the world.
Is it just me or did anyone notice she put the cuff on wrong ?? I was always taught to put the pipe part level with the inside of your elbow gives a more accurate reading ??
Seeing this and knowing my aunt has lupus is scary.
I feel sad for her. My daughter has an auto immune disease. She had a transplant at 18 but it rejected after three years and she’s on dialysis again. Her blood pressure is very very hard to stabilize. It goes from 175/110 to 70/40 within hours. A lot of medication and a lot of monitoring.
'HOW DO I PRESS IT? JUST START?' 😂😂😂
Not hating. It was just funny.
I have Lupus too. After having my 3rd son, I went to my 6week check, and my BP was 200/100... nearly stroked, thank God I was right across from the hospital. It happened 3 more times before I could get it under control! SLE Lupus is so rough! People who don't have it just can't understand! I constantly have pain in my neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, and hands!! It has attacked my kidneys, heart, and liver without warning! 😢 I can not begin to imagine how she does everything she does! Selena is amazing!! ❤
Never seen anyone have a stroke at 150's/100 shoot thats my average patients BP lol Thats my BP right now. But I get the sentiment if it stays like that uncontrolled for years can lead to stoke or MI
I've been struggling with dangerously high blood pressure, 200/110.
Ive been off work for about 2 months now trying to find a med that works and doesn't make me super sick due to side effects 🙈
Sending everyone good karma and hope you all have a wonderful day ☺️💕🇨🇦🤙
I don’t have lupus, but I naturally have low blood pressure as well. 125+ bottom number is high for me. My bottom number would get unusually high during pregnancy too.
No idea what causes it, but it’s been that way my whole life. My core body temp runs a little low too. Usually 96-98.
They need a update how to properly check your own b/p
