Within Normal Levels

Filed under: Headspace — bec June 25, 2008 @ 11:56 pm

It was another doctors appointment today.  Fun.  My Potassium levels are low but GOOD NEWS cats and kittens, my blood pressure is now within normal levels… Hurrah.

So, interesting conundrum. Do I keep taking the medication that is bringing my blood pressure down, but is making me tired and miserable and bleurghy.  I mean, my blood pressure was ridiculous and was causing me pain and some of that has gone, but the tiredness is really messing with my head.

Oh, and the sickness - probably the sickness bug that s going around.

Why can’t it just be easy?  Medication with no side effects.  Medication that just works

God, my head feels so fuzzy.  I have been asleep for most of two days and my brain is still there in the dream land where I am loved and the sun shines over perfect green fields.

Yeah, it’s all a bit messed up here today.

  1. It’s all a give and take. I :should” be taking my meds for my Celiac’s, but since it won’t kill me if I don’t, fudge on them for the same reasons, they make me loopy and nauseous. Since yours is for blood pressure, I might still take them and perhaps the side effects will weaken with time.

  3. Side effects are vile but you know how dangerous high blood pressure is - you probably should keep taking them and see how you feel when the gastric bug has gone. Drink plenty!!! (And I don’t mean wine, this time!) ;o)

  4. Penelope - I am continuing to take the pills. I may be feeling like crap but at least I can move without wanting to scream! I’m all about the fluids at the moment… Water and juice and the like… definitely… sob… no wine…
