Default Going to hosp. on Tues.

*lol* I don't know if today is getting better or worse. I have been dealing with low blood pressure/high pulse for weeks and finally saw a doctor today. She took my BP/pulse while lying down.. 106/75 and a pulse of 84.. .to my BP dropping and pulse rising when I stand up to 85/58 and a pulse of 120.

Needless to say..my heart is working hard for some reason to bring my BP up and the doctor doesn't know why *lol*, my mom called me a hypochondriac.. like I can just change my BP/pulse at will (she really did say it's all in my head)

The doctor gave me some FLUDRICORTISONE that I can take tomorrow morning, guess it's supposed to open my arteries up. On Tuesday, I go to the hosp. for an Echo. I already had blood drawn and will have more drawn then. My Neuro is out till the middle of next week, not that he was a help because I waited 1 1/2 weeks for a response when I first had symptoms.. my PCP was Not happy today with that *lol*

Soooo.. just more drama in my life.. if I donate my body to science when I pass on..they are going to have a fieldday! But, I would much rather this ALL happening to me than my boys.

I did IM my little brother today about my symptoms and he's having weird heart things as well but not at home in Mass, he's in Vegas for the summer. I told him NOT to mess around with his heart. Sometimes I just feel like Life is just continuing to Bend Me Over!
