I have been told you have to have your feet flat on the ground and you shouldn't talk.
156 90 95. I think that is still too high because my gp put me on medicine when it was 160. I woke up with a stomach ache. I put a wet towel on my head last night to try to cool off because I haven't gotten my new air conditioner yet.
I am hoping I don't spend money today.

Unhappy

Will wait with you while you wonder when you will get your new air conditioner.
Can you call to see when it will be delivered?
It is really hot here....

at first I was told in two days but then I think I was told on Tuesday. I wonder if my cardiologist will raise my blood pressure medicine or maybe find something wrong with my heart. I don't know how to control my spending. I don't want another drug. I will finally try to use by stationary bike today for a few minutes. I have been so out of control I haven''t been helping myself at all. I am so flawed.

Make your blood pressure readings accurate | Health Insurance ...
healthplans.providence.org/.../blood-pressure
Make sure the patient has both feet flat on the floor. This means avoiding taking blood pressure on an exam table, from which a patient's legs will dangle. Dangling one's legs requires muscular activity, which can increase blood pressure. Ask the patient to relax, as much as possible, and make sure he or she isn't talking when you take the reading.

Very interesting. Wonder why the doctors offices don't do
that too.

But I know it really doesn't matter I just know that I can't
seem to get a reading with my feet on the ground.
period.

At my doctors' offices they have you sit in regular chairs to take vitals before you sit on the exam tables now.
It is strange that you can't get a reading with your feet on the ground, Donna. I have never heard of that. What do you do? Take your BP with your legs up on a table/ottoman?

I'm glad that Donna told you to wait until 30minutes to an hour after you take your medication to take your blood pressure. When do you see your cardiologist?

I'm sorry that you are overspending. I try really hard to distract myself when I'm hypo/manic and I start getting strong urges to buy tons of s***. Usually I will clean (but I buy anyway). Maybe you try to go back to your book? IDK. I know it's hard

Love to you today, Bobby (((HUGS)))
