i just took my blood pressure and it was in the 170's and then in the upper 150's. I woke up depressed but I think it is going away. I slept til seven. wow. that is the latest I slept in so long. I wonder if it was one of the teas. I will drink
a few cups today. I am afraid to take my blood pressure right now. I have so much anxiety

You only need to take your BP 3 times a day- tops, unless you have a very high, or very low, reading and want to see if it goes down with rest or a response to a medication :hug:

it is 177. I will take it tonight. I am so anxious

Do you take Blood pressure meds now?

Make sure you have relaxed, done some deep breathing,
and not over excreted yourself before you try taking it.

And please try taking it only twice a day. I would call
your gp if it keeps running so high.

I have an appt with him next friday I take ramipril in the morning. I used to also take it at night but a few years ago my doctor cut it down. I am still very anxious and have been reading. I love the author emily larkin. I downloaded a lot from kindle. I will take my blood pressure before I go to sleep.

the chamomille tea is also helping my ingestion bloating and gas.

glad that the tea is helping you!
Did you try the ginger tea?

That is supposed to help with tummy issues.

yes i have. i like it. my bp was 101 this morning. i feel really rotten today.
I ate too much junk and probably gained another pound yesterday. my back is so stiff this morning. i couldn't stand up straight up straight. i haven't used my bike in a while. i feel like crying but i can't.

I just wrote to Alice and said if anything happens to me I am sure they would easily be adopted by a shelter. they are so beautiful and purebreed

I am jumping out of my skin. I just took a bath and am making peppermint tea.
I am so stressed out that my stomach is beginning to hurt again. the antidepressant isn't working. I won't get on the scale. I am afraid I have gained at least ten pounds if not more. I am so furious at myself. I am having trouble reading. At least I threw out the garbage. I have been praying to God for help.
Stella and Cecilia have gone away for the weekend. My friend Zeynep just called. Her ex husband was dying. He was 96. I hadn't spoken to her in a few weeks. He just died. He knew her since she was 17. I told her I want to take her out for lunch. The funeral is in Connecticut
