Hi there,It is so damp here today and my back is really sore. I had to go to the neuro this morning. Once he found out that I was going to a pain doc he very quickly told me that I didn't need to follow up with him anymore, but that his practice was always available to me. Do you think he felt some relief that I was with someone else? I guess he feels somewhat guilty and was afraid of what I would do. Anyway, I was put on blood pressure meds again yesterday because my pressure has been spiraling up. This happens so many times. It is up for weeks or months and then drops down again. I have been put on medicine 4 times in the last 9 years. The doctor did say that pain has something to do with it so maybe if the pain level recedes it won't stay that high.I am so tempted to get another kitten and I know that Joe would not stop me, but for the first time I don't know that I could care for a baby. I have the two other cats and I know they would not like it. If I followed my heart, I would get one, but the reality of my limitations is stopping me. I fluctuate from hour to hour. Maybe if I took a nap I would forget about it for a while LOL.Nothing else is going on at the moment, so I will talk to you all later. luv ya

Just wanted to let you know I\'m thinking of you and hope you start feeling better. Maybe a kitty will find you soon. I hope you get some rest. Take care of yourself. Love you, Kath
you will know when its time, probably when you aren\'t thinking about a new kitty ! I never thought I would want another one, not with 3 dogs, my last cat Sam got out and ran sway about 10 yrs ago, and I alwasy have hoped somebody took him in and gave him a good hime. I was divorced at the time and he was who I can home to every night. I wish you could feel better ALL the time, and get that b/p to stablize. Wondering, did you take that nap? hugs sandy
I\'m sure your neuro did feel relief. Well, at least, I know around here that is the case. Just take care of yourself sweetie. Like Sandy said, you\'ll know when it\'s the right time for another baby. Follow your heart! Love ya! Kimmy
Hey girl!The pain makes my blood pressure hard to treat too.Think you\'re right about it maybe getting better when your pain is under control.Hang in there!
Well, at least you are getting looked at closely and I won\'t worry about that shady ex-doctor of yours (he is scary). I think that you should put yourself first then think about another kitty, don\'t take me wrong, I love kitties too, but you are much more important and I would just love to hear that you are doing sooooo much better. When that happens, *I* will remind you of the kitty. I really hope you feel better. Unfortunatly I haven\'t have to deal with high blood pressure so I am not familiar with the meds, sorry :(
Hang in there and listen to the dr. Hope you feel better soon.
