YEs, just a general email for all. And when your home
all the time. LIke you are it needs to be changed a little.

But they aren't going to tell you that. Its because when your
not it can be different. Its like when My husband sets it for when
we both are out for 8 hours a day. He can set it for 5 degrees higher
than we want for the nights.

Bobby ~ I live in a county owned building. They are keeping the hallways upwards of 78 degrees, but are not recommending what temp to keep during the day. Most of us here are home during the day. Fortunately the county pays for all our utilities.

Glad that the increase in your meds is helping you feel less depressed first thing in the am !! Yay for YOU !!

If your BP rises again, you can contact your GP or cardiologist, and they can adjust your meds again, so everything will be okay (((HUGS)))

Please don't try to start drinking large quantities of water. About 8 glasses a day is the standard recommendation, and can include other fluids. Too much water could effect your BP and send you running to the BR with urgency, which could increase your risk of falls :hug:

I'm so glad that you are enjoying the soups. I like the ones with barley in them, but don't know if any of there are low-sodium versions.

It's good that you are keeping the air on at 72. I know that you are getting the same heatwave we are, too. So, I'm really I'm relieved to know that you have your AC now :hug::hug::hug:

Ut Oh, did I cause an issue here about consumption of water??? My apologies if I did. I always try to mention to check with your doctor first before starting anything new.

After all these years of drinking that much water, I am used to it and do not run to the bathroom anymore, with the exception at night, lol.

Will keep my suggestions off the message board to prevent any conflicts. Again, my apologies !!

that is great. I just turned off my new ac. I will turn it on in 15 minutes. I think my room should be cooler. I guess I am depressed because I don't feel well.

I feel the ac but i think it should be colder. I am just going to try to fall asleep

ny stomach ache went away but i am depressed. I don't think it is stomach cancer if it comes and goes

I seem to be in some sort of crisis. I finally woke up without a stomach ache. I wonder if is just IBS with constipation. My apartment is comfortable now but I am terrified that it is not working properly because I thought it was supposed to shut off when it reached the temperature I set it at. It didn't seem to matter if I set it to 72 which it is on or 68. What if the bill is 400 dollar? I wrote my friend Robert to see if he will check it out and will ask the building tomorrow. I don't know if I am depressed or just terrified. It is awful to live alone and not have somebody there when I have such negative thinking. I must have gotten six hours or seven hours of sleep. I am exhausted. I am so frightened.

two different guys came up but they didn't know about the ac. Eddie said he would tell the super. Usually the super goes away to his house in Pa. for the weekend. I am calming down a bit but still very agitated. Hope it doesn't have to also do with the increase in Aplenzin. The people who work in this building are so very nice. I am greatful for that. Only the president of the coop is a sh@t. The super left because of him. We were all heartsick because the super is so fantastic,so nice and bright. Eventually they made a deal and the super came back and he rules now.

I don't think that you have stomach cancer. You are not throwing up or losing a lot of weight, which are good signs (((HUGS)))

I think by the symptoms you have been talking about, you probably have acid reflux or something similar that is resistant to OTC meds. Untreated those symptoms can cause problems, so the GI needs to check things out unless he can prescribe a med that relieves your symptoms first :hug::hug::hug:

IBS usually effects your lower abdomen, so that is a separate issue. They are both very common problems tho.

Try turning your AC off and unplugging it for a little while and see if it works better when you turn it back on. Sometimes appliances need a little break.
I'm glad that Robert is going to take a look at it for you though because that may not work, and he is so handy :hug:

I'm so sorry that you are scared and having negative thoughts right now. I wish that I could take that pain away (((HUGS)))
When you are feeling that way, are you able to read? Or are you too overwhelmed?

I wish that all that sleep helped.

Of course you can make suggestions! :)
And it's very responsible of you to qualify them by suggesting that people consult with their doctors first...

It's just that trying to drink 1/2 one's body weight in water is not healthy, and probably not possible, and Bobby said she was going to try it, so I felt I needed to say something.

I'm sorry that you felt put out by my comment (((HUGS)))

I do have a habit of contradicting people if I disagree with something, and I hope that you don't take it personally.
