Medical Update...

Last Thursday I went to the clinic for a cortisone injection in my left knee. Saw a new dr. She really impressed me! And the injection didn't hurt! The bad news, was my blood pressure was way too high! So she asked me to stop in on Monday and have a nurse re-take it. Still high. So I had to go in to see the dr. today. Pressure had come down a little, but still way too high, so she prescribed a new medication. I start taking it tonight.

Gee, growing old is SO much fun....

Careful with the blood pressure medicine! That's what sent my dad to the hospital for passing out in the middle of the night. He couldn't remember if he'd taken it or not, so he took another one anyway.

*sigh*

Now that he's straightened out though, he's feeling much better. Hopefully you'll notice an improvement too.
