I hate adjusting meds. I don't know what to attribute things to. Currently I feel a bit out of sorts and don't know what's going on.  I haven't written too much because there's not much change. I...

It's been a few days since I have written anything in the old jounal. Nothing much has changed. We are still trying to get my blood pressure, pulse rate and blood sugars where they should be. My doc...
