now it is 123 70 76 I feel very jumpy. I won't listen to the psychiatrist now. I still have a lot of klonopin and will take 2 mg now

i am taking ramipril once a day

now it is 197 121 97 i took it again and it said error. i took it again and had 184 108 95 . then i worry a lot about colon cancer because I suffer from constipation. I have little activity and am overweight and I take a lot of meds whose side effects are constipation. I told my current doctor that I use Phillips around four times a week. He said that was okay. I am terrified of a colonoscopy and I think the stress of it could give me a heart attack or stroke.
I am making peppermint tea now

Glad that you last reading is normal. heart rate is up a bit but could be from anxiety.
or just normal for you.
I told you that often my heart rate is 100 just sitting at the computer.
love to you today bobby.

You had a blood pressure reading of 197/121?! That is WAY too high!!!
I would not be concerned about a pulse of 102 if you are anxious. My pulse has been way over that due to pain, anxiety, and/or dehydration.

Your readings are all over the place. Are you using a wrist cuff? They are not reliable/accurate.

I'm glad that you are going to see your PCP on Friday, and I like your plans for what to say :)

Maybe you could give this pdoc another shot, given you have physiological evidence of your out of control anxiety now?
Or make a list of pros and cons for going to each pdoc?
