My BP is the same way. I dread talking to my doctor so much that mine goes out the roof. I record daily BP measurements for a month before I go or she would have me on them too. If I’m not stressed, my BP often goes to the neighborhood of 90/60. Meds would kill me.

Complete and senseless slide.....

Has anybody noticed a significant drop in the quality of service from FedEx lately?

Like, for example, 2 boxes shipped from the same outfit, sent together, labeled 1 and 2, shipped to the same destination. One is here, the other one took an odd turn and is some 350 miles away, but still shows that it will be delivered today.

This is not the first time they’ve screwed things up recently. I had a package from B&H a few weeks ago that got lost in shipment. Are they now employing illegals or something?

in the spirit of the discussion, this has raised my BP a bit, especially since I’m going to leave town on a 575 mile drive tomorrow, and I cannot use the contents of package 1 without package 2. Plus, I need to be home to sign for the package(s).

Buttheads.

That’s exactly how mine was doing. It amazes me what doctors do not know. High blood pressure can be caused by many different things IMO, most doctors don’t want to go through the trouble of tracing down the cause, they’d rather treat the symptom.

Soon after the cancer diagnosis, I took my health care decisions into my own hands. I will never again let another doctor prescribe a med or do a procedure without my full understanding of why take it or do it and benefit vs risk. That was why I wouldn’t do more chemo, for what? An extra few months of life, wherein I’d be sick most of that time?

I put my trust in Gods will and truly believe that is all I need do. Prayer over medications and procedures are just as valid of those for life.
