Morning Pondites .....I am one cannot be put off my ways creature of habit ..
I am good stopping to take them not say time wont come to remind me not today

 

[BYC910]

No... No insurance. today UM yeasterday was rough. Tried to relax by taking mom shopping on the way home she had me in a crying jag.... Cried the whole way to her house. then on and off to home. By the time I got out of the car I was ok. In the house i went and decided to take my blood presseure.

I called n911 by the time the EMTs got there my blood pressure was 200 over 150 ish. off to the ER

I was now in Light... house is dark... Relaxed atmosphere comfortable bed. I almost fell asleep. BP Was dopwn to 172 after about fifteen minutes. By half an hour it was town another ten points. They gave me my blood pressure meds and sent me home.

In a Taxi Guy was probably from Packastan... Sounded Indian but his name looked Arabic. My nerves were shot before we left the hosepital. I had to type the destination for him on his Phone which was cracked beyond belief. Nice guy but english was an issue. Could not drive especially on the freeway.

Mom had a fit over the price of the ride... I tried to say "Mom Dont" but got out of the car instead. I went in to the house as ordered and sat on her recilner. Thank GAWD my son showed up in about ten minutes.... and saved me from the Grilling over the hospital.

Home at grandmas Dark house now seemed a refuge. Where we freed poor Brandy from Paramedic prison (grandmas bedroom). She took her time comeing out apparently she took the opportunity to nap. Silly girl and I was worried.

We got dinner on the way home and I had my two Ginormous Pickled Jalepenios... Been Craving them lately. and about a third of my Fish taco.

Went to bed couldnt sleep or even relax. Came in here and played Solitare till the sun went down. Took my night time meds plus some added tylenol. and went to bed.

I died figureatively. only got up twice to go to the bathroom.

this is the second time. back was hurting so I came in for more Tylenol.

Going back to bed now.

Deb how is your BP tonight ?

 

[BYC910]

I am the worlds worst patient. DW sets out my vitamins. I get my on meds.Not that many meds but loads of vitamins. The omega 3 is the worse one .I forget and drink hot coffee. And then burp up a awful taste . Eye doctor wants me to take 2000mg a day .Says it will help my eyes .First batch I got ,they were burpless.Last batch Dw got regular . I hate it .So ordered a big supply of burpless from Swansons. A little less expensive than buying over the counter.I've delt with leg cramps for years ..constantly over working my legs and then,enduring killer cramps at night .400 mg of magnesium at bed time has stopped that .Tried that theraworks and got no rests at all.
Been walking like a ape for about five days won't go to the doctor .Just do a little lay o my heating pad for hours and do a little more .A little better today.

Eat more bananas for leg cramps or most not a dr so will not judge

Droctor says bananas have to much sugar .He is always on me about my glucose level. Says lose weight. I'm border line diabetic.

All I can say is, good grief! Take care!!

Keto diet. Sure takes care of a lot of problems. My daughter goes off of it for a week and her hips, joints, are not happy. She's small now, just keeps at the top of the carbs. She feels great on it. I did it all last year. I like it too.

 

[BYC910]

Son and dil like it to both have lost weight .DIL looks so much better .I was a little worried about her .What is hard is Ben has a very limited amount of foods he will eat .Almost no vegetables. So I try to eat smaller portions . All the time trying to keep him fed.And trying to change over to natural sweetners .

I get a daily text to remind me to take my meds. I don’t “read” the text until I’ve taken the medicine. So I always see that little red number, and the preview until I actually go do it!
View attachment 2039219

even with the reminder id still forget. Lots of things on my mind kicks out the other stuff I get clumsy too.

I take a boat load of stuff even though they took me off Diabetes meds which I took three. And BP meds which i took two. and two Depression and anxiety meds.

Then there are the meds for nuropathy in my feet that I still take and of course Cholesterol meds...

I am down to one bp pill twice a day. the Nuropathy meds at bed time. Vitimine b12 Folic acid fish oil a multivitimine in the morning and D+B after cancer That one I take morning and evening.

Anti depressant is Am Anti Anxiety is Am and Pm.

and at the risk of developing Seritonin syntrom I take another antidepressant at bed time. It acts as a sleep aid.

This week the pharmacist scared the crap out of me on that one... Each chink in the armor is cumulative for me..

Getting ready to move
working with the accountant to get my cousins to give her info
I have a friend that i havent heard from since a week before valentines day.
Dropped a big water tank trying to proove to myself that I ddint need to wait for someone to show up who doesnt even call me.
Pharmacist info.
steeled my nerves to go talk to Rita to coordinate retrieval of my horse trailer in order to pack it.
found out the depth of the damage to the house...

It was a relieve to be hauled off in an ambulance.

And NO I havent taken my blood pressure. I know you all care thats why i share. But at this point I am pretty appathetic. I am taking my meds. I realized through the stress I was eating a boat load of heavily salted foods. I musta peed a gallon last night. After that I slept big time.

I am trying to keep the idea rolling that I can turn the negatives into positives... But I cant place my full attention on it till taxes are done... and I can finally distribute the money.

I am not equipped emotionally to handle it well, even in small groups.

I know you know, but I'll say it again...when life is overwhelming, just "do the next thing." Not everything. Hugs to you, Deb
