WHINY!!

GOING FOR EKG AT 7:40 A.M.. DOC JUST WANTS TO BE SURE THAT THERE ARE NO HEART PROBLEMS THAT MAYBE CONTRIBUTING TO MY HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE. I AM STILL VERY....WORRIED ABOUT IT. I AM FIXATED ON IT AND I THINK ABOUT IT CONSTANTLY. I SPOKE WITH MY COUNSELLOR ABOUT IT YESTERDAY. SHE SAID THAT I NEED TO DO A WORSE CASE SCENARIO AND THEN COME UP WITH THE ANSWER. WELL, THERE IS LITTLE I CAN DO THAT I DO NOT PRESENTLY DO, I WATCH MY SALT AND FAT INTAKE. I HAVE A GOOD, HEALTHY DIET. I LOOK AFTER MYSELF. NOW, I AM TRYING TO LOOSE SOME WEIGHT, NOT THAT I AM OBESE BUT 20 POUNDS LESS WOULD BE FANTASTIC. PLUS I DO NEED TO GET BACK INTO THE HABIT OF EXERCISING ON A MORE REGULAR BASES. I HAVE JUST BEEN SO DARN TIRED JUST TRYING TO GET THROUGH THE DAY THAT THERE IS LITTLE LEFT FOR ANY STRUCTURED EXERCISE. ENOUGH EXCUSES, I JUST NEED TO DRAG MY SORRY BUTT AND GET IT DONE. I AM JUST FEELING SORRY FOR MYSELF. I HATE THAT WHEN THERE ARE SO...MANY HERE THAT ARE FAR WORSE OF THAN I AM. I HATE IT WHEN I AM A WHINY, SELF-CENTERED BITCH!!!! ANYWAY, GOTTA RUN AND GET READY TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL FOR TEST. CATCH EVERYONE LATER. DEBBIE

I hope everything looks normal, better that it is normal. Do take care of yourself, high blood pressure can cause some serious problems if not taken care of. How high is yours? I\'m just wondering if it\'s something that other things might help. Know there are some herbal things many use with pretty good success and things like meditiation and getting regular massages...I just really hate going the medication route if it can be avoided.

Hope you get over that tired feeling, I\'d imagine things are looking pretty spring like in your area and I know how you love to get outside and make your place so beautiful. The way your constantly on the go I\'m not surprised you don\'t have time for \"formal\" exercises. I have that battle with my doctor at times, I tell him if you don\'t think I get enough exercise come spend some time out here and see what my days are like then tell me that again. Hugs and loves

After 7 years of having some chest pains and normal eegs we figured out it was my bp. It jumps around from minute to minute. Ive been on bp meds(bystolic) since feb and what a huge difference. No more racing heart or tight chest. You are going to be fine.

Worry is horrible and I undersatnd it because I can obsess about all kinds of things especially if it is medical. I can have myself in the grave in 10 minutes. We have got to stop that and when I find out how I will let you know. LOL NJ xo
