A Visiting Nurse was here (for my wife) a few weeks back as I broke into a CH 10...she took my BP and it was High for me, I usually run in the 120/80 range, when she took it I was 110 over 90.
She told me that "an old nursing trick to see if a person is in pain is check the BP", if they know what your mean BP rate is & it is elevated then they know you are in pain.
Thus I would believe that all of us disply high BP and pulse rates when under attack. Just my own opinion though.
