PS: I just sent an email saying I will take my own BP before my next appointment.

"She said I there was no reason why the BP med would raise my BP unless I was stressed." It probably won't help for us to point out that this undoubtedly well-trained medical person is dangerously delusional about the universal efficacy of drugs in general, despite the presumable assumption that she did pay attention during the discussion, long ago perhaps, that not everyone has the same kind of reaction to certain drugs in particular, such as opiates.
We will deign to forgive her apparent lapse, but we will of course, continue to monitor her recommendations in the future.
I am not a doctor, nor do I play one on TV or on the Internet.
I am a poet.

I have been trying to tell medical personal for years that I have “White Coat” syndrome and they keep trying to give me meds. The WORST is when they put the automatic cuff on...that is painful in the least and frightening at best because it will cycle three times before it quits.
And of course, each time, the BP goes higher and higher. I have told them not to use it on me, and one gal did, anyway. As soon as her back was turned, I tore it off my arm, but not before I had a hairline bruise that was over 4” long.
And it does no good at all to remind them that high BP is a symptom and not a disease. The money is in the meds. They don’t want to find a REASON for the high BP...it’s easier to throw meds at it.

Oh, yes...opiates. Opiates will intensify my pain and make my eyelids heavy, but keep me awake. The smartest doctor I have encountered in the last 10 years prescribed morphine...but I can’t take the full dose and I can’t take it at night. In its mostly pure form, it works for me. Mix it with anything else and it turns me into a zombie. And my question is always: How in the world can people get hooked on this stuff?

"And my question is always: How in the world can people get hooked on this stuff?" My question is always, "Are these the kids who were afraid to get inoculations?"

Yah, see? I was never afraid of injections until I was in the car accident. I came to in the OR and the plastic surgeon was just injecting my cheek with a pain killer so he could sew up my face.
I went out again, and from that day to this, I do NOT like needles. I can’t watch.

And your Saturday was how good?...
I want pizza, but I don’t dare for at least another week. I need to lose another 10 pounds...

couldnt sing it either.I'm sure you could find multiple examples of unintelligible whatever on EweToob...
Which goes to show that they can't sing it either...
Harkens back to a group called the Kingsmen and the discussion of what the 'real' lyrics were.

Compared to some sources, Jabberwocky actually makes a whole lot of sense.
